Drug Testing
[ send me this paper ]
The essence of community is a trust among the citizens
and a willingness to abide by the rules of governance. The issue of
drug testing raises a myriad of questions concerning the right to
privacy and autonomy by the individual in opposition to the good of the
social order. This 5 page paper argues that the issue of drug testing
goes beyond the consequences of a positive result: it undermines the
very concept of community and the essence of the Constitution. The
social ramifications, such as discriminatory policy, cost effectiveness,
false results and, or, safety and health are minor compared with the
philosophical ramifications. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
