Greg Fischer, the children's lobbyist
This bill is a complete joke.
The system still EXTORTS money out of poor people then puts them in the slammer. Parents earning under $25,000 a year are poor and should not have to get criminalized and further slapped down. Is criminalizing parents in the best interest of children?

This bill is a furtherance of government measures to destroy fathers and fatherhood, not build it up and acknwledge them.
When will the government wake up to the fact that a child needs both parents and allow fathers a seat at the table. Instead we hear more and more of deadbeat and fatherhood remains little else that a man with a billfold.

This act is horrible - politically popular parasitic politics. This act does the same thing similar acts have done before it, the exact opposite of what it's advertised to do, just more of it.
It doesn't promote families or help women and children. It only helps further rip them up, terrorize them through promotion of lies and hysteria. It prevents families from forming as well.
Acts like this do exploit the public, especially women and children: www.true-equality.org - listen to what women (female victims no less)are saying about bills and policies like this, and so many of it's like-minded predatory predecessors. They have all produced the mess this bill purports to save us from. Isn't the definition of insanity, "doing the same destructive thing over and over and expecting a positive outcome"?
Also see www.mediaradar.org for more straight talk on bills and policies like this and the devastation they do in the name of government saviorism.

Once enough people wake up and see what's being done to them on the sly, they will chase snake oil salesmen/women like this out of town.

The very concept of this act is flawed from the get-go! It seems to hold forth the preposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end! If they really wanted to support responsible fatherhood then they would call off the war against fathers in general. Are the voters really soooo stupid that they believe that only a father came cause harm? And: that only mothers are good for children or that mothers can do no wrong? (or both?). Just how is this even tolerated; when we can not use racial profiling against terrorism but our own governments sponsor terrorism against fathers under the guise of "protecting children and servicing families!
Sexual profiling? What's next?
This is yet one more example of how badly our society has deteriorated!
What a crock!

If ever there was more of the same, well here we have it HR3395.
Lets examine it's effects, firstly it places more federal funds into the hands of the officiating class, worse more funds to obfuscate with PR and rhetoric the problem with a failed (! or intentional) political policy. Not a dollar will ever reach the targeted people, especially as all these non radical public regurgitations authorize the further divide of families. Something stinks in paradise on earth, especially for those who live in the reality of this legislative minutia.
