Make a bunch of kids and want everyone else to pay for them. This is such a obvious money grab - it has nothing to do with reparations or "past sins". GFTO Commiefornia. What a waste of a state.

kilroy69 1,215 Posted August 2, 2023 I would not say it is racist. I would however say that it is sexist for sure. If you have an even split there is no reason a woman should be getting child support just because she is a woman. I have a buddy paying 1200 a month for his kid which he has 50/50. They LITERALLY split time and he has to pay 1200 a month. No way that is fair. Men are punished. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You make a valid point, but keep in mind there is a falacy out there of some disparity in the pay between women and men. While the disparity does exist, it is not gender-centric, but instead includes a variety of variables. So, if we can at least agree on the premise that men do tend to earn more than women (without getting bogged down in the why) then it makes sense for men to more often pay for support. Remember that Chris Rock skit "men are only loved on the condition that they provide something". Now, moving back into this trend of liberals pretending to be "fixers" of wrongs, and doing things that are profoundly racist.....here we are again......the mere association of AA men paying for the support of their children as being racist is just so very.....very racist on its face Time and again, liberals astutely identify a key issue within the AA community, then misdiagnose the cure.....and pointedly harm the AA community. It transpires with such predictability..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So the man should subsidize his kids mother because she does not make as much as him? In what world is that fair? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Women work outside of the home. This is an antiquated way of looking at things and is what keeps men subsidizing women for just being women. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My guess is that the laws are written to where if the parent who owes child support is in arrears, then they have their visitation reduced. If that's not the case, then I don't know what they're talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
