Company-mandated random drug testing is not an invasion of privacy.

As long as the company has a well-known no-drug policy, and employees are made aware that drug tests may be required periodically, then it is not an invasion of privacy.

The Russia-Georgia conflict will not lead to another Cold War.

This situation will create some lasting tensions, but not close to the magnitude of tensions during the Cold War.

Congress should not issue a second round of the 2008 stimulus checks.

First, let's see what effect (if any) the first round of stimulus checks really have on the economy.
