This group of trees is located near the old house that is falling down. I love the fall colors that are present. It is a pleasant sight to see when driving through all the corn fields and soybean fields.

Urine Test?

I 100% agree with this statement.

Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government

distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine

test with which I have no problem. What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to

people who don't have to pass a urine test.

Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for

them? Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the

other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their A--, doing drugs, while I work. . .

Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public

assistance check?
