Listen to this rational discussion:Walker's budget fails drug test
"We welcome Scott Anderson, executive director, Wisconsin Council of Churches, to discuss a recent letter from 9 faith-based organizations raising moral objections to the forced drug testing of moderate income Wisconsinites. We also handicap changes in Walker's budget in the context of new polling numbers and pessimistic revenue projections."

Drug and Alcohol problems are medical problems and not moral deficiencies. I feel that this was a known consensus among the medical community but funding was directed towards the jails and prisons for these people and they have been treated unjustly. And now another vulnerable population is being targeted for this unjust treatment.
