Answer by Voice of Reason
The statement is wholly indefensible. No one has the right to even USE illegal drugs. And no employer should ever be forced to extend a job offer to one.
Only a drug user with an addled brain would even try to defend such a stupid statement.

but that’s all looking like it’s going the way of the dodo. why in the world would anyone want the government involved in their health care?
