When the government stops giving welfare to drug users, and other abled bodied Americans, there will be enough people to fill jobs. The fact that companies have to stop drug testing employees, or not have enough help, is one huge consequence of more liberal drug policies. Libertarians, (as well as just plain old druggies) don’t want to be told they can’t use drugs, if they feel like it. If you know anybody who works in most of the fast food and low priced food, and other entry level type businesses, they will tell you that if they demand a clean drug test, their labor pool shrinks considerably. They’ll also tell you that the quality and dependability of most of their employees, is majorly declined. Not to mention the lousy work ethic of a good many millennials. (Older employees, by and large, at this level, make good employees).
They have a new trick. They only test if you’re injured on the job.
If its not bad they go to their own doctor and pay it themselves.
If you have to go to the hospital, and you have a hot drug test....
First, you get fired, then workers compensation won’t pay the hospital bill, and finally, you get stuck with the bill.
So they don’t have to pay screen you and then don’t have to pay if your hot.
