A quick survey of the Oregon Department of Employment shows the majority of jobs offered (above minimum wage) are requiring drug testing and background checks. From personal knowledge, I know of several McDonald's joints requiring drug testing.

Of course I'm in Oregon, which seems to have a little problem with meth.

Based on my experience, drug-testing employers are in a minority.

Your sample is about as nonrandom as mine: jobs in a particular region and a particular skill range (Departments of Employment don't list CEO openings). So it remains the case that the market is far from unanimous on the value of drug testing.

Now what about my other question: "Should the voluntary choices of SOME employers be forcibly imposed on ALL?"
