Employers in the Eagle Ford shale say there’s a desperate need for truck drivers to haul water, sand and oil. But they’re having trouble filling those jobs because too many applicants fail drug tests and background checks. They want to get the word out that anyone with a commercial driver’s license who can pass the tests is pretty much guaranteed a job, Manuel Ugues, business services director at Workforce Solutions of the Coastal Bend said at the second meeting of the Eagle Ford Task Force Wednesday.

This certainly puts a chink in the argument that drugs are victimless crimes.....when so much of the population makes themselves virtually unemployable, where else will companies look for employees?
