NO, drug testing wont work. I know of Ramsey County here in Minnesota requiring you to show up for job training and check in on them regarding your progress on job searches. They also require you to hold on to a legit job if you are on welfare therefore minimizing the overall cost of the welfare recipients. I think this is an excellent approach to this problem, usually these welfare milkers stay in the system forever without doing anything to better their situation and becoming completely dependent on help.
