[King Mayan]

More money is going to be wasted, but I guess it's necessary...

[mike1234]

Finally some common sense in this country here.

[Wiggums5]

good job, about time...i wonder what took so long

[spankie]

[VegasInsider]

hell yeah florida!

[jagaf22]

Rick Scott!

[gwiz]

when the governor owns a drug testing company it is no wonder he is going to find a way to get more business

tie in the fact that welfare recipients have no money and have to pay for these tests themselves guess who gets to pay for the tests

just another way for the rich to steal from the tax payer

[BigOrangeTitans]

I love this bill, lets go 49 states!!!

[underthe total]

its about time they hold some of the poor people in our country accountable.

they should take the expense of the test out of their check

What drug testing company does he own? I think you are misinformed and confusing his 62 million investment in Solantic Corp. a chain of 32 urgent care clinics. Solantic would not bid on that job as long as Scott's shares remain in the trust.

Best news I heard today!

[onetrickpony]

[The Coach's Desk]

[Joe Dogs]

Long overdue.

How about adding a little community service,if one is able to work.

[capitalist pig]

Ive heard they (FL) are going after people collecting unemployment next, why not you have to pee clean to get most jobs now a days anyways.

[CreaturE]

This is incredibly awesome. I hope they do this in every state.

If they pass the test, it doesn't cost them anything

Watch the crime rate in Florida saw through the roof as a result of this....Hope they are building extra jails so that the tax payer can pay more.....And to think some of you would still call ur country a democracy

This causes way more problems. Stop going after the goddamn people. It's hard for poor folks. Better schools, more jobs, more training...

[cant call it]

Alabama and Georgia are screwed

How so? Do you know the amount of people on welfare in Alabama and Georgia compared to other states?

[cant call it]

We are overpopulated.
Need to quit supporting them.
Only natural that weaker ones die off.
It may sound harsh but its true.

[gafl]

I had to take a drug test to get my job, only fair to require one not to work.

[ryanjep]

interesting law. i wonder what states will follow next

[ttrace35]

Drug addiction is a disease. These people are handicapped wiith a disease. This is wrong

If you drop out of school in the 9th/10th grade...live the street life for the instant gratification of $$ for nothing....then suddenly find yourself without any....hate to break it to ya but thats not related to schools jobs and training......it's called ya fukked up and don't come to me asking for money to buy weed so you can lay your ass up al day and talk about how people are keeping you down just because your friends who went to school and learned a marketable skill are now buying a house, car and whatever else.

Goes for the inner city as well as the rural red necks who laugh at the 'preps' and so forth until they see those guys on the other side of a desk looking for them to hire them in 5 years...as the Vandy chant goes " thats alright thats okay...you're gonna work for us one day"

Weeds not a disease and the rest of the drugs....if you didn't know BEFORE your first line, needle or pill that it would be hard to kick...same for cigs.....that's their own damn fault.

Show me one current crackhead or smoker that said "wow, noone ever told me this shit would be hard to break once I started"
