Random Tuesday Wednesday Morning Thoughts


  • Bridgeport made the playoffs with a 4-6 record which will always be a head-shaker to old-timers.
  • Do generals just sit around and write emails all day?
  • The reconstruction of the wreck on 287 was handled with arrogance by law enforcement yesterday. Traffic was routed to the service road and then to the Saginaw cutoff where no one was directing traffic. And the cops didn't seem in any hurry to "re-create" or measure or do whatever it was they wanted to do.
  • Channing Tatum is People's Sexiest Man Alive.
  • There's a "squatter" trial going on in Tarrant County where it is reported that the defendant faces "life in prison." While true, I don't think he'll get much, if any, time in prison.
  • Perry and Cornyn wanting drug tests for those receiving welfare sends a not-so-subtle message of rich white guys looking for a way to kick the poor.
  • I watched a 4th grade school choir last night. The number of cell phones that went up into the air in camera mode was amazing. I would think that camera sales have absolutely plummeted, right?
  • Pat Robertson on General Petraeus: "The man's off in a foreign land and he's lonely and here's a good looking lady throwing herself at him. I mean, he's a man." If Robertson is married, his wife might want to do some snooping herself.
  • The woman who is essentially the whistle blower in the Petraeus scandal called 911 about news crews on her property: “You know, I don’t know if by any chance, because I’m an honorary consul general, so I have inviolability, so they should not be able to cross my property. I don’t know if you want to get diplomatic protection involved as well.”  A little bit of self importance?
  • From the Update: "BENEFIT ACCOUNT – A benefit account for Laura Davis has been established at DATCU in Decatur. Davis is uninsured and in need of a liver transplant." There's an Obamacare message in there somewhere, isn't there?
  • Overheard at the courthouse after the election: "Those people in other parts of the country just don't think like we do."

It is pretty simple. I have to pass a drug test to earn my money which a part of goes to support the welfare system. They should have to pass a drug test to receive the benefits.

I am not a fan of helping people get high. They can do that with money they earn themselves.


The obamacare message is that she made a bad choice, not purchasing healthcare, and now they want me to help. Sorry!

Maybe, and they're both asses, but this is the kind of fiscal responsibility that moderates like myself can get behind. As long as they couple this with some sort of treatment program, great. The problem is that it won't happen, and it's a way to clean the welfare rolls up by kicking people off altogether. That will be bad for heir kids, who play no role in their poverty and who will only continue the cycle of ignorance, poverty, and drug abuse. It will create a bigger problem than it solves.

But there is a problem, and something needs to be done.

I mean, he's a man.

One of us = OK, even if a sin.

One of them = lying liberal cheater. (See his comments on Clinton, after all, whose job was as stressful as the general's, if not more so.)

I'm not sure many people think it's a bad idea to drug test recipients. I know a lot of moderates that want it, and combined wit the Republicans you may actually get something done there. I hope they do. Like I said, the real problem is what to do once they bang out. "Kick them off welfare" simply won't cut it.

I watched the movie, "Precious" on the OWN channel the other night. It shows a very good reason to drug test people wanting to receive welfare. Anyone applying for a job needs a drug test so, what is wrong with it?

Anonymous said...

Well, before you get TOO negative about the drug tests for welfare recipients, Barry, you need to realize you're always on the bandwagon for decriminalizing/legalizing drug abuse because the "War on Drugs" is not working. HOWEVER, you DO realize your position BY ITS VERY NATURE includes OTHER approaches to handle/solve the negative social impact of drug abuse, right? AND THIS IS ONE VIABLE APPROACH (if it's handled correctly) coupled with perfectly VALID reasoning.

Think--if all your clients with a drug problem had all their cases dropped--okay. But now YOU (and all of us have to support them)! See a problem there? Think SOMETHING "socially" needs to be done?

Better back up the "criticism wagon" if somebody puts out some form of NON-CRIMINALIZED way of "dealing" with the situation! Be consistent, man. At least, be consistent.

Thank God that the rest of the country is not like Wise County. They have good jobs with benefits, retirement,etc. while we lead in low paying job creation, except if you are lucky enough to get on at Devon. The oilfifeld jobs here are good, but lay you off more times than Lockheed ever will after Congress cuts funding. The people elsewhere work hard too, I would put the coal miner in Ohio, PA, and others among good hardworking simple folks like here. A lot of those states are higher in education rankings than Texas.
Most love the area, but there is a lot of welfare, dope, and laziness in our own backyard.

Anonymous said...

Honcho, I hear you, but the short answer is that drug tests are very expensive...especially when measured against the amount of money given to welfare recipients.

Additionally, a one-time test wouldn't solve the problem. A monthly test would be insanely cost prohibitive. So, are we looking at random testing...but for all recipients? Still a huge price tag.

Appeals? Follow-ups? Management? All mean massive amounts of $ to run the program.

It's been tried in other states and the cost/benefit analysis shows that it cost more $ than was saved.

Couple that with the fact that a significant amount of the benefits are for children who have nothing to do with controlling their parents' behavior. We stopped punishing children for the crimes of their parents over a thousand years ago.

I love it when these so called self sufficient local people brag about how they take care of their own and don't need welfare, yet ring up a 300 dollar bill at wally world, the biggest employer whose policies get over 2 billion in Government help, and are too blind to realize they are supporting the welfare machine. They shop there supporting the top employer whose workers are on Medicaid, and food stamps, because they know how to pass the hidden costs on you the taxpayer, but all you care about is the low price.
It was a lot better when we got items at the hardware store from the mom and pop on the sqaure, but oh yea, Walton undercut them too. The bargain at the mom and pop was the real cost, but now out of business, because you can't compete with welfare.

Stay classy Wise!

Michigan was the first and only state to require random drug testing of all TANF recipients. The 6th Circuit Court in Marchwinski v. Bowler, held that Michigan’s drug testing was unconstitutional. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit upheld a lower court’s decision striking down the policy as unconstitutional. The law violated the Fourth Amendment and the court held that“upholding suspicionless drug testing would set a dangerous precedent.” Drug testing in these circumstances must satisfy a “special need, and that need must concern public safety.” Michigan, in that case, couldn't demonstrate the special need, and one doubts Texas could either.

I don't know the specifics in this case but Republicans need to understand some people just can't afford health insurance. In some cases they would have to spend all their food and housing money and maybe have enough for health insurance.

That $200-$300 a month insurance cost is unreachable for some people. Why can't Republicans understand that? Are they blind to everything except what is happening in their own little cul-de-sac?

Which is more profitable- kicking people off the gov't teet, or legalizing drugs?

If you kick people off welfare, your crime rate is gonna go thru the damned roof. They're STILL gonna get their drugs no matter what.

On the other hand, you legalize, tax the ever loving hell out of it, and maybe dig the economy out the red.

9:35 If you really believe all illness comes from bad activity, you're an even bigger fool than you sound.

There are a lot of reasons for disease, only some of which have anything to do with how people take care of themselves. Perhaps you've heard the term "genetics" or even that some people have been exposed to something that made them sick without them knowing it.

What's almost as foolish as your statement is your assumption that everyone can purchase insurance. Perhaps you haven't dealt with an insurance company that doesn't want to cover a preexisting condition. If the person you call out had insurance, but then lost his/her job for some reason, it's unlikely that any private insurance company would cover him/her for the preexisting condition.

So, unless you are already receiving Medicare or you are part of a group plan and it's impossible for you to lose your group coverage, YOU are in the same boat. Well, at least until the preexisting condition part of the new healthcare law becomes effective.

Someone may have mentioned this, as I got tired of reading the usual dribble, but I believe the caveat on the welfare drug-testing is reserved for recipients with histories of either drug abuse or criminal activity related to drugs. While i usually tend to side with the left, I have no problem with regulated who receives what, especially if it is spent on drugs.

I think you're oversimplifying the squatter trial to the point of trivialization. Squatting is only the start of it. This guy moved into, uh make that broke into, somebody else's house - not abandoned, just a vacant house because the owner was undergoing cancer treatment. Then the guy proceeded to empty the contents of the house - some estimates go as high as a quarter mil. That's somebody else's property, which he stole.
Now imagine somebody trying to do the same thing with a commercial building that's sitting empty. The "Nobody was using it so I decided to move in" defense wouldn't hold up in any court

Dude, do you seriously believe Pat Robertson's wife is worried that any woman is "throwing herself at him"? I think I'll have to take back that comment from yesterday about money and fame trumping looks!

Aren't playoff berths decided by the teams' records in district play? A 7-3 record looks nice, but if all three losses were at the hands of district opponents, you probably padded your non-district schedule to look good

You can play the rich card in the welfare drug testing proposal, but the majority of folks in favor of it are by no means well-off.
It can be tied into the other point about "don't think like we do". Yes, government assistance and drug use are alive and well here in Wise County. I'm sure you'll also find some farm&ranch outfits that are receiving some form of subsidy. But the majority of farmers and ranchers in this county can't fathom somebody being okay with not working for a living, and not even making an attempt. And being an example for your kids that it's an acceptable way of life. That feeling extends beyond the folks who raise cattle and crops. Now extrapolate those voters in this county and you might begin to understand why the big middle portion of this nation votes a particular way, while the left and right coasts and big metro areas vote another.
One way to reduce the cost of drug testing for assistance: if you fall on hard times and need short-term help, that's fine. If you pass a certain time period and still get assistance, then drug testing kicks in

10:10 Point out anywhere in my comment where I state that all illnesses come from bad activity? So your saying a healthy lifestyle is not important? My point was simply that people who tend to make bad decisions in life, like not getting health insurance when they are young, when it is still inexpensive, and before they have preexisting conditions, are usally making other bad decisions as well. Like drugs, cigs, alcohol and a poor diet. Not spending that $10-15 a day on vices can, in most cases, afford someone health care insurance. Do you think these people would give two shits about me if I got sick? I doubt it, they would just question why I wasn't asking for a handout.

How come the drug testing for welfare has to be based on cost? How about the novel idea that it is used to create some personal responsibility.

Pre-existing conditions become a major factor when there is a lapse in coverage. There are exceptions to every rule but for the most part this is what gets people into trouble.

There is also a thing called the Texas Health Risk Pool that is an outlet for insurance coverage for people with health conditions who do not meet the underwriting criteria for the private business'

To be uninsured is a personal choice. Yes it can be expensive but in my opinion it is worth sacrificing other wants. This should go into the "needs" category.

Anonymous said...

"Again, will someone set forth a sensible argument about why we would NOT want to drug test recipients of unemployment or welfare benefits?"

Not foremost but first of all: You lay off the substance (whatever it is) for some days ahead of time and you'll beat the test. You take your pick of multiple products to use right before the test and you'll beat it. You answer some questions to your advantage or make some statements that are same regarding your recent history you'll beat the test.

You're wanting them to do the test because of your preconceived notions and prejudices.

It's a waste of time and money (even if it is the recipients).

You're wanting the fruits of your prejudices and preconceived notions to be validated and help solve a problem (which it can't/won't).

There's literally no material benefit to drug testing welfare recipients. You'll test 100,000 of them to catch 2 with weed in their systems.

This retarded idea has been tried multiple times before in other areas- it never works.

Why not sobriety tests or Breathalyzer tests on demand? Why not credit checks? Why not drug test seniors when they apply for Medicaid?

This idea of drug testing these people is so odd and off the wall, the burden is on the people pushing for it to rationally explain why they want it (except for it makes them feel better).
