Keith:

Unfortunately, your "hands off business" attitude will lead to
more problems and bring us closer to the world as described in
"Brazil" than a simple regulation stating "NO DRUG TESTING" as
a condition to employment would.  Will you then allow employers
to put cameras in people's apartments?  Is that next?  In your
view, the employees would "gang up" on the employer.  Obviously,
you don't understand corporate culture.  The employees would
be infiltrated from above and any move at rebellion would be
quashed by the mgmt through threats of firing.

Also:
Requiring drug testing before getting a job would lead to
a brain drain in this country as people head towards free-er
regions.
