$30 to $40? Damn he got off easy!

Child Support Payments Taken From Wrong Man

Of course I’m joking with that headline, but compared to how much they take out of my paycheck each and every two weeks, it’s relatively tame. Still, a penny unearned is a penny unearned. I think Mr. Garcia also learned what bureaucrats and cockroaches have in common: it takes the light (flashlight or publicity) to really get them moving. So keep publicizing those tales to the press. It only takes one brick to bring the whole thing tumbling down on them.

No, here’s where you’re ‘100 percent wrong’

Give gift of child support at holidays - Roanoke.com

E-mail sent to Ms. Flowers. And as always, if she replies, I publish.

Ms. Flowers:

I caught your column regarding child support and thought I would clarify where you are ‘100 percent wrong’.
“In 2006, “tax intercepts” collected $33 million from federal returns and $2 million from the state. The money was forwarded to the children to whom it was owed.”
Not if they were on welfare it wasn’t. In those cases, the majority of the child support went back to the state, not the child. And we’re not even looking at the interest and penalty the state profits from using children as skillfully as a modern day Fagan. Don’t just believe me, check out http://freeinternetpress.com/story.php?sid=14474
And we look at the picture that you paint of greedy men evading child support (and if you want another idea for a column, check out why the percentage is 88/12 in terms of child support. If I said that something was 88/12 black/white, wouldn’t you want to know why that was). You don’t seem to even mention the parents who were jailed or sued:

• Because their boss kept the money http://www.thebostonchannel.com/news/14763949/detail.html
• Because they were kept from earning a income by being wrongly imprisoned: http://citizen-times.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=200771024048&source=rss
• When the child wasn’t even theirs http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/07/11/paternity.cases/index.html
• When they were disabled after 13 years of prompt child support payments

We can go on and on and on here. The point being that your picture is slightly askew. Child support is something that is being used by the state as its golden goose and they are sacrificing men of all races, ages, and incomes in order to get at the cash. Here’s another idea: try to live off of $200 net, play by the rules and tell them where you are so they can fleece you, and have the state take your tax intercept to pay themselves…ERR the welfare cost of the children.

Well if he’s that stressed, maybe he needs a new job

Jailings Over Ringing Cell Get Judge Ousted - News Story - WFTV Orlando

I think this is a perfect metaphor for what is happening in our family court system, by the way. You have our judicial system snapping over one person then summarily throwing all of the defendants behind bars without a fair trial for their own behavior. The only difference here is that the thought of getting his picture plastered in the paper for this asinine action jerked the judge back into reality. In the family court system in general, they don’t get either the publicity or the point of their inane actions that make men prisoners or paupers while lining their own pockets and doing nothing for the children.
