I want my money!
LOL, you're a MAN! You aren't supposed to get free money; only women are.
Just what makes you think you have the right to free $$$? Shut up, be a
responsible REAL man, and PAY your "child support". How dare you take food
out of the mouths of innocent babies!!!

I agree, and have been considering writing an article presenting that
point of view for a couple of weeks now. In all seriousness, it's a
credible cause.
A Return To Welfare As We Knew It?
The Beginning Of The End Of Child Support Reform

"Despite a federal requirement for states to review their guidelines
to assure that their use results in a just and appropriate award in
every case, no state has ever validated the logic of their guidelines.
According to child support collection entrepreneur Robert Williams who
is the primary designer of most state guidelines, the objective was to
increase the average amount of an award by two and a half times. It is
this practice in particular, arbitrarily increasing awards by using a
presumptively correct formula that the Georgia court found
unconstitutional.
......
The overpayment resulting from the use of guidelines has become known
as hidden alimony.
On the other side of the issue is a strange coalition of special
interest groups that profit from the current system. These include
state enforcement agencies, private collection businesses, and women愀
groups that have sought higher financial benefits for divorce.
Billions of dollars in federal funding have driven the system,
creating a vast network of political friends."
I enjoy your articles immensely, and would LOVE for you to write this. I'd
definitely send it to all my local newspapers. A good time would be after
the Georgia decision appeal (hopefully) fails to result in reversal ... you
could do an article on that, with the "reparations" as a follow up. A good
(and rightful) tack would be that, as mentioned in another reply, the
victimization is contemporary, and the perpetrators are still a
perpetratin'. Hold the accountable accountable. Also, note that the
reparations would be in the interest of CHILDREN as well as their fathers.
How long do you think the Georgia appeal process will take?

And then the children of divorced parents should file suit for
reparations from the NCP, CP, and the government because they would
have a better life if the parents stayed together, at least money
wise.
