echelons that make rules for the little people that they skirt around. I wonder how many CEOs and execs. ever get drug tested. Drug testing IMO should only occur "if" these is probable cause and sufficient evidence to warrant drug testing. IMO running everyone through the mill (or at random) is asinine ... but as usual, follow the money trail and someone's making big bucks off of it, probably.
