If a guy is constantly struggling with paying child support payments, would you support the idea of reducing his payment or having the government pay? (Page 2)

Government pays too much of the child support for deadbeats already.

[Jouth]

NO!

HE PUT THE BABY IN THE BABE, NOW PUT THE MONEY IN THE BANK IDIOT

[jjj101010]

He should get another job to pay for his kids

[FunkyMonkee]

Why should WE pay YOUR child support?

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

It’s not my child support

[NamerOfStars]

As it stands, if he can't pay, WE are the ones who pay the costs of his imprisonment. Do you really think that's a better alternative?

[FunkyMonkee]

It doesn't mater who's it is, if the government ends up paying for it, it comes out of OUR tax dollars which comes out of OUR pockets! Just like this shit where the government pays college tutions! YOU'RE going to college but I have to pay for it?

[NamerOfStars]

Yes, just like YOU pay for the roads I drive on, and I pay for the agricultural inspections that keep you from dying of easily preventable diseases. Unless you're going hardcore libertarian and claiming that only the wealthy should have the things taxes provide, you're going to paying for SOMETHING. Do you really think that throwing a guy in prison, leaving him mentally scarred by the experience and unable to earn an honest living afterward is somehow morally superior to having government-funded childrearing? It's not even less expensive!

[FunkyMonkee]

@NamerOfStars What I'M saying is, taxes are SUPPOSED to pay for roads and making things better around us but they're NOT for handing out to people for bullshit like college tutions, just so someone can go for free on OUR dime or for someone's child support when I had NOTHING to do with that marriage or bringing that child into the world!! You HAVE to take your OWN responsibility for your OWN life choices!! How is MY fault that YOU fucked some bimbo you shouldn't have even had your dick in? Why do I have to shell out excess tax money for YOUR bad choices? I think it's utter bullshit that I even have to pay school taxes when I don''t have any kids!1 What's even worse is that the kids over the last 20-some years are VERY OBVIOUSLY NOT learning what they're IN school to learn!! I've never SEEN as many stupid kids as are running around, today!! The do incredibly stupid shit, they can't even use proper English, they hardly know math, they couldn't even point to America on a map of the world!! They can't do SHIT unless their little toy phones tell them how to do it!!

[NamerOfStars]

You haven't answered my question- would you rather the government spend tens of thousands of dollars or hundreds of thousands of dollars, given that neither program would affect you in any way?

[blondfrog]

Feminist's would never support that.

[TheFlak38]

We live in a society that hates men.

[grega239]

Its the government you'd have to convince
