Question by honestly63: Are the states that require drug testing for welfare recipients anti-veteran or unpatriotic?
(Since 1/3 of all homeless men are veterans, and more than 2/3 of them suffer from drug/alcohol abuse, I’m guessing they are being harmed by this policy.)

picador, I didn’t say 2/3 of all veterans, I said 2/3 of homeless veterans.

Holding up a sign that says “vet” doesn’t make you a veteran. I don’t believe that statistic for a second. Care to provide a source?

Ok, the VA provided me with a no money down home loan. What more should we do? Pay for their drugs?
