Lawmaker Wants The Rich To Be Drug Tested Before Receiving High Dollar Tax Deductions

I love this woman. If she were a man, I'd say she has balls of steel...............

Lawmakers should be drug tested.

“As a strong advocate for social programs aimed at combating poverty, it deeply offends me that there is such a deep stigma surrounding those who depend on government benefits, especially as a former welfare recipient,” Moore said in a statement. “Sadly, Republicans across the country continue to implement discriminatory policies that criminalize the less fortunate and perpetuate false narratives about the most vulnerable among us.”
How about this false narrative: that any of these programs "combat" poverty.
I have no problem seeing programs help those not able-bodied or able-minded. But those to whom that definition does not apply to have not been helped by long-term dependency on such "aid". 60+ years of doing this has only brought us higher poverty rates, more single parent homes, higher illegitimacy rates, and a social safety net that will topple the next time we have a financial crash. If this is how to combat a problem, then we've certainly lost the war.

WTF have conservatives done EVER, to combat poverty???.
WTF has "anyone" done ???
Reality is when something gets subsided, it flourishes almost 100 % of the time.
In example, farming, business, and a prefect modern model, our Federal government. (Just look at where the biggest economic growth in our country is...hint Virginia/ DC area)
Poverty is no exception.

Tell me, WTF have conservatives done EVER, to combat poverty???.
They ended slavery. That was probably a half decent start.

YOU, comparing the party of Lincoln to the "conservatives" of 2016, shows how truly ignorant you are.

You asked for an example. Sorry you don't like the answer.
