Drug testing for SNAP & welfare benefits has in fact been done. The states which tried it determined that less than 1% of all applicants failed the drug test. The savings on benefits was substantially less than the cost of the drug testing. https://www.clasp.org/sites/default/files/publications/2017/08/Drug-testing-SNAP-Applicants-is-Ineffective-Perpetuates-Stereotypes.pdf
