CSE

I have set here and read blogs about the rights of Feminists, Gays, and Immigrants all along thinking that there is one group that no one seems to care about or want to fight for. The group that I am referring to are Fathers and Mothers who do not live with there children either due to Divorce or just having children out of Wed-lock.

The Division of Child Support Enforcement (DCSE) like most government social programs was a great idea, because a number of men where turning there backs on their children just because they didn't get along with the mother. But as so many of these great social programs go, it has been left out on it's own and has turned into a raging beast. Much like the abandoned children it is trying to help. The system is set up in a way to protect the custodial parent and the children. The non-custodial parent is often treated like a criminal or like they have committed some outrageous sin. Do not misunderstand me I know that there are a lot of Dead Beats out there that run and hide; and do whatever they can to avoid paying for the children that they have created. I am not speaking about them in this post. I am speaking for the ones who love their children and have no problem doing what thy have to in order to help.

The laws governing DCSE do not seem to care one way or the other. All non-custodial's are lumped together. Now I know the custodial parents will sit back and argue about how hard it is to raise a child and the burden falls on them and so on and so on. I am not talking about them either. this is strictly for the NC. I would like to propose that the government look into the system and give something back to those people who are upholding their responsibilities and doing the right thing. I am not saying lower the payment amounts or anything like that, what I propose is make it a pre-tax deduction that way you give something back without giving anything back. Or you could simply allow the NC to claim their child as a dependant. These request are small and insignificant in nature but would mean so much to the people that are affected by them.

To be Continued.

Political Immaturity

I would like to know where did the art of Political Mudslinging come from? This has to be the most ridiculous method used by candidates today. I mean are the people so ignorant that we still play the he said she said game. Do we really care who did what 15 years ago? wait a minute this is the Nation that made the talk show famous..Jerry, Rickie, damn. Maybe we do care. But if we do then someone tell me why? As for me I could care less what someone did in the past. All I care about is whether or not they can do what they say they can do. If they can't then I don't want to talk to them.

As for politicians grow up! Start saying what you mean and meaning what you say, let your word be your beacon. Start showing the people that if you say you are going to fight for something then that is what you are going to do. We need politicians who are not afraid to stand out on a plank by themselves in order to fight for what is right. This party politics BS is killing Democracy or at least what we call Democracy. How can you be for the People by the People if you do not listen to the People. Instead in today's politics the elected officials act in the best interest of the people much as parents do for their children. They tell us what they think we can handle and hide that which they think we can't. If it is the Governments job to protect the people, who protects the People from the Government?

I hate to say it People but the form of Government practiced in the US is no longer Democracy instead is it Capitalism. Because all of our elected officials have been bought by those with the power and money. We the poor people are just cattle being herded towards their eminent destruction. It seems to me that Revolution is in order because that is the only way that the people will regain control of the Government that has abandoned them.
