   Unlike other forms of discrimination in American history, discrimination against fathers was not instigated by the people, but by government and special interest groups. Sure, many go along without understanding what is truly happening, not just to fathers but also to children, but by and large the footsoldiers in the war against fathers are government bureuacrats and politicians pandering to special interest groups.

   In North Dakota, a group of citizens have organized and are taking back their government, and their children, from the control of the bureaucrats and special interest groups who routinely exploit children and discriminate against fathers to line their own pockets with money. What they fail to understand here is that while strong-arm tactics including illegal threats, abuse of power, and bias and discrimination in the courtroom may work fine when they target a select group of citizens such as fathers, they cannot be used against the electorate as a whole.

   Make no mistake, they are very threatened by the actions of the people. Not only would they face a loss of employment with the loss of the ability to exploit children for money, but they also face being exposed for what they truly are, criminals. Without the ability to wreck families for profit, it will soon become apparent what they have been doing all along to protect their money and their turf, and what they have done to children along the way. Anything less than a lengthy prison sentence as a result is unlikely, and their desperation is beginning to show.

   Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. The house of cards is beginning to fall in North Dakota, and once that happens the rest will fall like dominos. After all, it wasn’t desperate bureuaucrats and greedy special interest groups that made America great, it was the people as the ultimate authority to which government must answer. Taking back our children from the sleaze who exploit them can rank up there alongside the original American revolution, if only the people stand firm against the lies, greed, extortion, and exploitation of children.

   I don’t believe the feds are bullying anybody in
   North Dakota: the claim North Dakota’s IV-D
   program will be jeopardized if a joint custody
   presumption becomes law is nothing but a
   smoke screen being disingenuously employed as a
   scare tactic, undoubtedly hatched entirely in
   North Dakota to try and persuade the voters to
   defeat the ballot measure.

   Federal bureaucrats probably don’t support joint
   custody as a rule, and some may be loose canons
   willing to act in league with unscrupulous state
   politicians, but the statement quoted is
   completely irresponsible and without basis in
   federal law or policy, and may well not have been
   made at all.

   Joint custody proponents need to take the high
   ground and the initiative and explain that if
   joint custody `costs’ anyone anything through
   child support, the problem is with child support
   laws or policy.

   Take the offensive: don’t let the opposition set
   the terms or `frame’ the debate.

   This is one of those situations where we are seeing a misuse of language.
   North Dakota elects not to do family law the federal government’s way. Thus
   the federal government stops funding North Dakota’s child support
   enforcement.
   That is not a penalty, that is a PLUS!!!!
   Fewer Treasury Notes we have to sell to the Saudi Royal Family. Less
   National Debt. Less federal spending. This is not a penalty!
   With shared parenting North Dakota no longer needs to commit the CRIME of
   Peonage against its noncustodial parents because they will no longer be
   noncustodial parents.
   But this business of calling a state’s decision to not accept federal funds
   by doing things its own way a “penalty” is a serious misuse of language. To
   wit:
   If you quit your job at IBM, IBM quits paying you. Nobody ever said that
   is a “penalty”; it is the natural consequence of quitting a job. Everyone
   is free to quit their job under the 13th Amendment and the Antipeonage Act.
   Likewise, every state is free to refuse federal funds.
   To call such a “mandate” is to call it something it is not.
   Everything child support enforcement does is a CRIME of Peonage anyway, 18
   U.S.C. §1581, because such denies to the noncustodial parent the
   CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to quit his job.
   So why is the cessation of federal funding for a federal crime a penalty?
   It is like calling the ocean land and calling land ocean.

   Unlike a business, a government organization measures their success by the size of their budget (tax dollars) and the number of employees.

   I got the distinct impression, while I was being mistreated in the family court during my three year divorce, that they created work for themselves and money by mishandling my case.

   As I was accused of more wrong doing, the judge engaged more government employees. For example, they called me a deadbeat dad because their support report stated I was in arrears, however, a five minute check of two dozen of my payment receipts would reveal I was current. It took the court over two years to correct their inaccurate report (No the judge did not apologize).
