Not unlike the 'Ansari X' prize which awards the winner for designing something to repeatedly break free of the Earth’s gravity – Arnold Schwarzenegger may be considered for the 'Malcolm X' prize, in preventing his state from repeatedly enslaving free men by utilizing false paternity. The state of Illinois attempted to take on the same challenge, but expedient injustice and the gravity of greed never allowed them to get off the ground.
Paternity fraud is so obviously wrong; it is hard to justify taking time to condemn it. Of all the 'deadbeats' that are accused of driving our national child support arrearage up to $84 billion - paternity fraud victims are the heterosexual men who dare to have sex with liars, who are expected and encouraged to refuse to allow crime to pay and their employers are scorned for withholding it.
A ‘deadbeat’ is defined as "One who does not pay one's debts - a lazy person; a loafer". The term was previously used to describe a morally negligent person who relies on the generosity of others rather than getting a job. The term deadbeat has recently been expanded to include breadwinning parents who are put out of a job due to extraordinary child support garnishments, which makes living and formal employment mutually exclusive. I would like to propose another expansion of the term to include agencies that are paid by the US taxpayers to support a State's families and children, then actively proceed to impoverish them, rob them, provoke violence between them, make them beg for mercy, imprison them, and give the surviving kids to the homos.
Paternity establishment is the ‘foot in the door’, concerning these Family Law vacuum salesmen, who destroy your home demonstrating their machine, and then force you buy it but then won’t allow you to use it. Many disgruntled customers are reluctant to make timely payments for a money machine that is designed to suck, and may be more reluctant to pay due to the amount of the monthly payments or in defiance of fraudulent billing. Although child support demands vary from state to state, there is a way that some greedy states can accumulate a huge arrearage that can easily be lost in the shuffle and absorbed by the state upon collection.
The interest charged on child support arrears is limited by the federal mandate to 6% maximum and specifies that this interest must be collected last. As reported by the Office of Child Support Enforcement:
Maine leads the nation demanding 15% interest for late payments, but no interest on adjudicated and retroactive arrears.
Indiana leads the nation demanding 18% interest for adjudicated and retroactive arrears, but no interest on late payments.
California ranks 3rd in the nation charging 10% interest on all 3 types of child support arrearages.
The actual child support owed by a parent includes any TANF or Foster Care charges that would be earmarked for taxpayer reimbursement. Upon collection of child support, the state is required to distribute the money in the following order: Child support, TANF, Foster Care, and Interest. Since TANF, Foster Care, and Interest are required to be distributed last, these amounts are doubled in the incentive calculations regarding the states cut of the $454 million incentive pool provided by the US taxpayers.
States who choose to unlawfully distribute child support collections as interest, will not only bolster their incentive calculation, but will also prevent the parent from reducing the principal, which would tend to reduce the interest charges. In a state that is penalized by the Federal government for continuing to operate an unacceptable system of accounting, it would not be difficult to find various ways for this agency of the Attorney General (CSE) to absorb uncalculated collections and then over-calculate the TANF and Foster Care payments that may (or may not) have been paid by the state.
A parent under the spell of a state CSE agency that chooses to charge interest, can calculate the money that is up for grabs by using the following equations:
Monthly child support withholding = (parent monthly net income) * (65% maximum)
Actual child support owed = (Monthly interest charge) * 12 / (Annual interest rate)
TANF or Foster Care owed = (monthly benefit or maintenance) * (Total months impoverished or imprisoned)
Total Interest owed = (Grand total owed)- (Actual child support owed)
Total support owed to the children = (Your guess is as good as mine)+ (Nobody seems to care)
For example, your humble 'deadbeat dad' / 'systemic anomaly' (on a blind date with destiny and I think she ordered the lobster) reports the following data from 2 different counties in California (Annual interest rate = 10%, LA = Los Angeles, MO = Monterey):
Monthly child support withholding = $2,718 (LA) + $1,738 (MO) = $4,456 (101% of imputed net income)
Actual child support owed = $63,120 (LA) + $66,840 (MO) = $129,960
TANF or Foster Care owed = $809 * 37 = $29,933 maximum
Total Interest owed = $42,668 (LA) + $21,270 (MO) = $63,938
Total support owed to the children = Priceless
Payment is power when you know what you owe- when you plop down a payment and watch where it goes.
"The function of the ONE is now to return to the source, allowing a temporary dissemination of the unimplemented US Code you carry, reinserting the prime program. Failure to comply with this process would result in a cataclysmic system crash,enslaving every parent connected to Family Law, which coupled with theimpoverishment ofthe family,would ultimately result in the extinction of the entire human race."
