 Con It would cost a lot of money to drug test all the welfare applicants. And the tests are easily circumvented. Any way to effectively give drug tests would violate their civil rights by infringing on their privacy. A study done in Florida, who itself instituted a mandatory drug testing law, found that only about 3% of welfare applicants used drugs, less then the national average of 8%. http://www.miamiherald.com... A court in that region found that mandatory drug tests were possibly a violation of civil rights too as I have shown. ^ |

Reasons for voting decision: No arguments from Pro or attempted refutations of Con's points. Therefore Con wins by default on arguments. Con wins on conduct for Pro's forfeits, wins on sources for being the only one to actually use them, and wins on spelling and grammar for Pro misspelling the only word he actually wrote in the debate.
