And you thought Octomom was bad...

FLASHBACK: Homeless Lady with 15 Kids:

15 kids, 12 of them minors, and she's demanding that someone be held accountable and pay for her kids...This may be a case where I'd agree with court ordered sterilzation.

Sure, close the barn door after the cows are already out.

Idiocracy (2006) I keep telling people this movie is actually a documentary. This is just more evidence to support that.

Not to get too bad off topic but I was watching a show called Celebridate on tv and the Octomom was the female that they were trying to hook up with three dudes. From what I could tell by the way she was acting on the show she seems to be a real nutcase.

You can be put in JAIL for non-payment of child support.


Oh, wait.....

That's almost as dumb as Ohio's law allowing the state to take the driver's license if you don't pay support...many people depend on that to get to work, without it, there's no work and no support.

Being formally a payor into the system, and recently becoming a payee, I feel the system is unfair to both parties. As a payor, I paid $X amount each month. The system administrators added a 2% administrative fee to my $X bill, which wasn't in the decree. I was raped of over $2500 during the time period I paid into it. The payee is currently charged fees to use the state provided debit card on every purchase and withdraw. The state refuses to offer a direct deposit into your own bank, and refuses to give you a child support check...they have an exclusive deal with 5/3 bank, who issues the debit card. This means that the state is taking more than the judge ordered, and the recipient is getting less than what the decree states. It's a real mess.

In my case, since I live where I do, I'm about 20 miles from the nearest ATM for 5/3. If I withdraw from an ATM not owned by 5/3, I'm charged another fee...I'd rather be sent a check or have it deposited into my normal bank.

My ex, when she had custody of the kids, was on welfare assistance. When on those programs, at least in Ohio, the state deducts a percentage from the child support to help pay for the welfare the recipient receives. This means that those on welfare aren't getting the full amount that the judge ordered.

They really need to re-evaluate how CSEA works...it's not fair to either side of the equation.

The OctoMom a nut case? No! Surely not!

The sad thing about this is that in today's world this is just no surprise. There are some of us who take complete responsibility for our own lives and wouldn't even ALLOW anyone to give us charity. Then there are many of the liberals among us who EXPECT their mistakes to be taken care of by the government and society.

As I say, the saddest thing is that this thinking is MUCH too common place in our society today. If the trend continues to a point where most everyone expects this, who will be left to provide it?

You're either in the wagon, or pulling the wagon. Is this lady riding or pulling?
