You're throwing out numbers for testing every single recipient.
Outside of my 4 years in the military, I've never been drug tested for a job and I'm 41yo. Are they really that common?
Do you know if that's how the state(s) that have enacted this policy are conducting their tests or are you just basing this on whichever job you hold that drug tests you and your coworkers?

I owned my own pipeline services outfit for 15 years and I'm pretty familiar with the process. If only 1% of recipients are failing then they're clearly not testing effectively. Or do you think food stamp recipients use drugs at a fraction the rate of the general population?

You must be a rarity. Outside of food service and small businesses, it is pretty much a guarantee you will have to pass a drug test nowadays. It is absurdly common even for jobs that a monkey could do stoned off his arse.
