Child support enforcement is the most repressive government machinery ever created in the United States. That's because it was based on Soviet Family Law, Article 81, now Russian Family Law. It was adopted by Sweden (which has a Marxist social system, while at the same time running a free market capitalist economy; like the U.S. at present). Then it was co-opted by Dr. Winklestein of Univ. of Wisconsin who brought it back from Sweden to the United States. It was originally called "The Wisconsin Child Support Model". In the Soviet child support enforcement system, they created the "deadbeat dad" moniker that was adopted here. Soviet child support enforcement would garnish a man's wages, impoverishing him and leaving him essentially homeless. A lot of the child support went to the mother as de facto alimony, since the mother used it for her own personal aggrandizement. The Soviet system seized assets, money, cars, and essentially made men alcoholics and homeless. This became a huge problem in the Soviet system that ultimately led to the collapse of their economy, as no men wanted to work anymore. The Soviet system always gave the mother custody of the child. There was no Due Process. You were guilty because you were a man. You were doubly guilty as a "deadbeat dad". All of this was adopted in the United States, and the fascist child support enforcement jackboot was put on the man's throat since the early 1980s. That's one of the main reasons women can't find men to marry in today's society. Because the Soviet-style child support and family court fascism in the United States can rear its ugly head at any time the woman tires of the man.
All true and important. But one thing I do not know: Was the Soviet system created before or after Stalin, as I understand it, rolled back the liberal family policy of Kollontai during the revolutionary period?
According to what I read in the Russian Family law, in footnotes, the child support system was started in the early 1920s, revised in 1944 because so many Russian men were killed during WWII (between 20-30 MILLION men), then revised again in 1969, and changed to "Russian" Family law in the 1990s after the fall of the Berlin Wall and Soviet Union.
