    So would these answers be used agains the parents in a court of law? In other workds, are we asking the youth of America to rat on their parents?

    In addition to that, let's ask their parents how there were growing up if they saved money or if they had any other tendancies that could point to other problems..

    We can pay out of our tac dollars to have more federal workers do the evaluations on these children while taking them out of class, so can we have mental health screenings for government officials while getting them out of there duties as public officials?

    But should they be manditory?? I think schools would have to have parental permission to draw blood or take any sample from a student. Big brother is here, and I don't mind him, but we have to draw the line somewhere!

    The government has also stated that looking at a computer screen too long is bad for your eyes. Should we look for a law stating how long we can look at our computer screens??

    Drug screening should be manditory in schools only after they are mandatory for ALL public officials. Officials should be screened as often as the students, and of course a few random tests as well. Would that pass in congress??

    I am a Right Winger, a Republican, a Conservative, a Musician (believe it or not), and I am also a Pot-Head. Though I can agree with many views on this thread, I do not believe legalization would benefit the the government or the user. The user would be taxed to the nth degree on a substandard product (compared to what we have today) and the government would have so much work to do that the cost of man power would negate a good deal of the revenue. Paper and lumber costs would go down, but there is no way to control intoxication levels. Chances are that most of the revenue created would have to fund a program to control the production and regulations of the drug. The breathalizer test won't (or can't(no research to back that up))detect concentration, and the blood test cannot provide on-the-spot levels needed to regulate DUI offenses. If pot were legal, the crack and heroin junkies would infest our cities like they have in Amsterdam and some places in Canada. Not pretty places either!! Legalization would only mean that I (along with millions of people in America) wouldn't be supporting my local gangsters and we'll be helping them pay for there six kids (tax-free) who are sucking up my tax dollars through welfare and food-stamps.. what to do, what to do?? It was also mentioned earlier to keep it at home. That's what I do. My wife told me to, and she's usually right! She's not a user, she just loves one.
