I have no issues paying mine. While I agree that it seems unfair and sometimes is, it's based on your income. If you can't pay the money, then it has to be amended through the court.

Look, regardless of anything, he obviously should've had plenty of money to pay. But he got himself into financial trouble like so many players do.

I don't feel sorry for these guys when they piss away their money and make poor decisions. And I certainly don't feel bad for men who make millions, have kids with someone, then have to pay for it. Regardless of how much it is.

And **** Ray Carruth. I don't give a hell about him. He was "scared" of child support so he murdered his gf and unborn child? Actually had her murdered. Sorry. Dude I hope you said that wrong because I don't feel bad for that POS at all. And I don't "see why" or how he did it. If he made a successful plot to kill them both. What kind of person do you really think he is? I'll tell you...A piece of garbage that should never see the light of day again.

There are simple solutions, but you have to overcome them politically. Payer pays into an account, not directly to payee. Payee can withdraw from that account for expenses, and the definition of 'expenses' shall be liberal. Kid's are expensive.

But payee must justify every expense, just like an HSA, and if payee tries to use money for a nice case of wine from Napa the swipe will be rejected. Any overage can be credited back to next year's Payer account so he/she pays less if monies aren't spent, but never more than the court orders for funding the account fully. Heck, the account could earn interest and so on and so forth and I confess, it's brilliant...

But you have to get something like this through the political minefield and they are not going to alienate that vote. I know I'd march on Washington if I thought it would help. Child/Spousal support has obliterated my income, just like the lawyer said it would.
