Agree

Yes, but provide treatment for those testing positive

Slightly agree

No, only if they have a criminal history related to drug abuse

This answer might be seen as slightly more acceptable within left-wing ideology due to its more targeted approach, focusing on individuals with a criminal history related to drug abuse. However, it still involves drug testing as a condition for welfare, which is generally opposed.

Disagree

Yes, test anyone receiving money from the government including employees and politicians

While the idea of testing anyone receiving money from the government might appeal to notions of fairness, left-wing ideology would likely view the emphasis on drug testing as problematic, even when applied broadly. However, the inclusion of employees and politicians might mitigate the negative score slightly due to a focus on equality.
