In summary:
California nurses say an addiction recovery program managed by their licensing board has become a trap that drives them out of their careers and leaves them in debt.
trapped in an abusive relationship with four kids and looking for a steady income. The day she graduated vocational nursing school, she took the kids and left their father.
Sage couldn’t afford the drug tests at $300 a month or a fine of $3,140. She dropped out. She surrendered her vocational nursing license in 2019
So because a single mom with 4 kids couldn’t pay an extra $300 a month, she now doesn’t have a job? I won’t do apologetics for a DUI, she fucked up, but that sort of finical burden doesn’t make her less likely to repeat DUI and now we have financially destabilized her entire family. Seems like we only made a bad situation worse.
Whoever made that drug test $300 needs to be shot.

Yes, but that was very explicitly the goal. After all, why help people if you can crush them instead?
