Do Texas Hospitals Have the Right to Drug Test Newborn Babies?

Question by lroble27: Do texas hospitals have the right to drug test newborn babies?

Best answer:

Answer by Professor Beatz
Is it mandated by state law, or is it the decision of the hospitals that they will only consent to grant medical care if the person be willing to undergo any test deemed necessary by the healthcare provider?

Edit: Good God! I can’t believe the Supreme Court hasn’t thrown that out–it’s a clear violation of the Fourth amendment!!! I guess the “right of privacy” only exists when it’s consistent with the agenda of the welfare state.

PEOPLE OF AMERICA! WHY DO YOU HATE LIBERTY SO MUCH?!?!? WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO INVEST ADDITIONAL POWERS TO A GOVERNMENT THAT ALWAYS LETS YOU DOWN?!?!?
