Title IV D incentivizes ripping families apart and falsely incriminating men. VAWA just made it easier. Hey state, we'll give you .66 for every dollar of (we don't care how) child support you take (from men, women almost never pay even when ordered). Sounds totally fair and democratic...

Oh and if you can't pay, the court suspends your driver's license so you can't get to work, and then issues a bench warrant and you are fully incriminated on top of having your life shit on.

Something like that happened to Dr. Carlos Rivera who fell behind on exorbitant child support, alimony and other payments. It was clear that even his doctor's income wasn't enough for what he was ordered to pay but no one cared. The payments remained. He did six months in jail once. How does that help to catch up?
