Dear editor,

The best news I've heard lately was the report of Federal Mogul instigating a drug sweep of their employees and their vehicles/belongings.

Aside from the almost daily reports of meth labs and their operators being discovered and dealt with, this is one of the most encouraging events in the war on drugs.

I have often wondered why more businesses have not launched their own drug sweep. Are they afraid of losing their dope-head employees - with their inclination to bad attendance, bad attitude, poor work performance, health problems, risks of being a danger to others, and (if they keep them on long enough or the employee is able to stay with them long enough) all these problems will become worse over time. Are they afraid of lawsuits?
