Congress is going to trample my rights with drug testing faking ban....

[Vesayen]

There were many cries as drug testing for employment became more common that it violated our privacy.....

Being hired is the employers decision-if they wish to make a drug test a term for employment, that is their perogative.

Now come law makers want to BAN various kits and methods that allow you to fake a drug test.

I do NOT do any form of drugs or even smoke. I don't even DRINK-I dislike alcohol.

I *DO* like my rights though!

If a company wants you to get a drug test that is fine but making methods that fool drug tests illegal, is oppresive. I have taken many drug tests as I have applied for many jobs and I have *NEVER* had to sign something to say "I don't do drugs"-they just give me the test.

If companies are having trouble with individuals aking tests.... ASK THEM AND HAVE THEM SIGN IT! Then when they lie, they could be guilty of fraud.

This is a blatant and unfair attempt at big buisness lobbying the goverment to steal away our rights.

There are NO justifiable reasons to make it illegal to fool a drug test when right now, the people administering the test could just ask. This is buisness lobying the goverment to opress the people to make their buisness go more smoothly.

All this does it take away my rights

*flips off Uncle Sam*

Well, it is kinda morally wrong, imho.

It's like cheating on any test...

[Vesayen]

That is why there are goverment bans on cheating on any sort of test.

Heck, why need legal contracts? Get rid of contracts! We should just making being dishonest illegal instead.....

Because we know that addicts/alcoholics are always so honest and open about their condition.

"Was that alcohol I smelled on the pilots breath?"
"How could it be? He signed the agreement, after all!"

[Vesayen]

Who cares if they lie? Any limitation on freedom, is a bad thing.

There are means as of now, to stop people who fake drug tests-it is called random drug tests during employment. Have them sign a contract which threatenes criminal prosecution if they lie about their drug status.

Who cares if they lie?

Given the nature of the problem, I care.

"Do you think the Surgeon really kicked his habit?"
"He signed the agreement, didn't he?"

What if you are a recreational user? A few lines of coke on a Saturday night doesn't make you unfit for work on a monday morning.

[Q Classic]

Well, it does if you OD on it.

In any case, I find it amusing what people get their knickers in a twist about. This? Doesn't bother me. DMCA and the new FCC HD regs? Those do.

What sort of answer is that? Driving is dangerous if you have a car crash?

[Q Classic]

Well, it is, isn't it?

You don't have to sign a contract to say you won't drive while you work for a company though, do you?

[JohnT]

If you're driving for the company, you might.

That's not what you're asking... I know. I just wanted to be snarky.

Knowing that information heightens the likelihood that you are taking coke at a time when it would make you unfit for work.
