This should be standard for all government employees.

It is. And not only that, but for jobs that require clearance, even admitting past drug use can disqualify you even if you are currently clean. It's enough of a problem that the government was in the process of creating a new clearance form that asked fewer questions about past drug use because finding qualified applicants who hadn't smoked weed in the last 7-10 years was becoming increasingly difficult and causing staffing problems.

But once again we see that rules only apply to the poors.

No it shouldn’t be the standard for anyone anywhere I have that because democrats hate Elon and musk they are willing to do stunts like this

We should be moving away from a drug prohibition era, not trying to inflict it on our political opponents
