Very strongly agree

No, this is a waste of time and money

Their policy positions generally favor constructive social support systems over punitive measures, reflecting a belief in the ineffectiveness and wastefulness of such testing.

Agree

Yes, but provide treatment for those testing positive

While The Greens Party would oppose mandatory drug testing on principle, they might be somewhat supportive of providing treatment for those who test positive, reflecting their broader commitment to healthcare and social support services. However, their support would be cautious, given the initial premise of drug testing that they would disagree with.

Agree

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

Although The Greens Party generally opposes mandatory drug testing for welfare recipients, they might see a nuanced approach that considers an individual's criminal history related to drug abuse as slightly more palatable. However, this support would be tepid, as it still involves drug testing that they fundamentally disagree with.

Disagree

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

While The Greens Party advocates for transparency and accountability in government, the blanket approach of testing anyone receiving money from the government, including employees and politicians, for drugs may be seen as overly intrusive and not directly aligned with their priorities. They would likely view such measures as disproportionate and potentially stigmatizing.
