Sounds rather sexist to me (but I am not suprised and pandering for the female block vote). What about "moms" that don't support their children? Perpetuating the "deadbeat dad" myth disgusts me. b. |

They don't care if anyone (read: NCP) can "afford more debt", they just want to make more criminals to chase after. Thereby justifying all the new laws - by claiming more and more deadbeats are running around the countryside doing damage to families by not being able to pay their debt, er.. obligation, to angry x-spouses (let's face it, what child "needs" $? What they really need are their parents love, care, time and attention - but that's not what politicians see...). |
