If you are sick, homeless and struggling you might have trouble attracting a girl. Remember, rape is illegal. I do find it odd that some of our prisoners have it better than our poor.

Yes

With today's DNA technology this law would be very easy to enforce. Maybe 3 years is not enough?
What about fathers who marry but are still deadbeats?

There was this tea party congressman from Illinois who owed his ex wife 100,000 in child support payments

Lol, the typical liberal childish reply...well he did it (pointing finger). Jail him!

Jail all of them unless they take responsibility and pay for the result instead of dumping on everyone else. Pay or jail. I'm tired of playing for everyone play time.

Just because someone pays child support doesn't mean their kids won't receive food stamps. The child support system takes a percentage of the man's paycheck, not the cost to raise a kid. What this mean is that you have some men paying $100/month and others paying $2000/month. The women choose to have kids though, men have no say.

This is true and even getting payment the woman takes on much more responsibility. Regardless people are tired of paying for everyone else's offspring.

No, but I do think both parents should be sterilized.

You're being a troll, right?

Sense we're exchanging ludicrous ideas, how about I propose that if a woman or even a married couple can't take of their child without government assistance, the child is automatically property of the state and aborted. How does that sound to you?

Sounds pretty one sided and sexist to me; those men did NOT make those babies ALONE.

I'm tired of paying for everyone else's kids to go to public school. My kids never went to public school and I still had to pay that little tax even though I also paid tuition at private school. Now my kids are grown and have their own children and have been out of school for about 10 years now and I still have that little tax to pay.
