LET'S INCLUDE RICH IN DRUG-TESTING

It should apply to everyone who receives taxpayer funding.

The governor has proposed that people receiving state-funded 
benefits, such as FoodShare and W-2, be tested for illegal drug use.

But why limit this service to just these people? How about the 
corporate CEOs and boards that benefited from those financial 
"incentives" doled out by the Wisconsin Economic Development Council? 
These were taxpayer-funded, too.

If the governor doesn't want to chance "wasting" state money by 
supporting drug use by the poor, let's have him be fair and start 
scheduling urinalyses for the economic spectrum's upper end, also.
