    Lol, this study is bogus, Now keep in mind it may cost some money in the beginning but, think of the millions it will save in Flordia alone not including the billions nation wide it will save once the drug users are weeded out, no pun intended, because they will not receive benefits of an avg of $1200 per month, $35 vs about $15,000 yearly and they say it costs more than it's worth! We are already according to the study saving $240 per month per person.

    Therefore, the 38 applicants in the Central Florida area, who tested negative, were reimbursed at least $30 each and cost taxpayers $1,140.

    Let's do some basic math and see :

    It is customary when cutting and pasting other people's work that you include quotes or other indications it is not YOUR writing.

    Besides, it would keep people from thinking this arithmetic idiocy is your own! :mrgreen:

    It's not true because someone in the Herman Cain fan club says so?

    I looked at the math. It is shady to say the least, and projects across tens of millions.

    Great idea, just think of all the jobs saved or created by the new testing labs and the expansion of the existing ones. The sales of testing equipment and supplies. It's also shovel ready.

    You are a joke, I used the model of only 2% which the study did. The math speaks for itself.

    How many millions are on welfare? Could that be why I also added the numbers for the entire country?

    Since these progressives are in a cost cutting mood, let's just stop welfare altogether. We are more broke than any nation is history.

    If a country is broke, you start cutting at the top!

    Corporate welfare and offense spending (anything more than needed to defend the continental USA) FIRST.
