Child Support: Income That Doesn’t Exist’

Human rights in the USA

“When people have orders that they can’t comply with, it doesn’t motivate them to work and pay. It does the opposite,” says Turetsky of the Office of Child Support Enforcement.

She says too many men quit jobs, turn down promotions or go underground when courts set child support orders too high. One problem, she says, is that when there’s no evidence of income, many jurisdictions “impute” it, often basing payments on a full-time minimum wage job.

“I’m going to call it magical thinking,” Vicki Turetsky says. “You could call it the income we think you should have. But the bottom line is that it is income that does not exist.”

The child support system was set up four decades ago, and Turetsky says it seems stuck there — as if a man with no college can still walk into a factory tomorrow and pull down middle-class wages. In fact, a large majority of child support debt is owed by men who make less than $10,000 a year.

“We’re asking that [women and children] become dependent on men who are just as poor as they are,” says Jacquelyn Boggess of the Center for Family Policy and Practice.

When parents face incarceration for nonpayment, it can burden entire families. Boggess has seen men’s mothers, even their ex-girlfriends or wives, step in to pay to keep a father out of jail. And child support debt never goes away, even if you declare bankruptcy or when the children grow up.

“We found that there are 20- and 30-year-old children who are paying their father’s child support debt, so their father can keep whatever small income they may have,” she says.

Balancing Responsibility And Reality

Among the Obama administration’s proposed changes to child support rules is a provision barring states from letting child support pile up in prison. There is wide support for that, even among conservatives.

“Everyone agrees, yes, we should be tough,” says Ron Haskins of the Brookings Institution. “But if a father goes to jail for five years, should he owe $15,000 in child support when he comes out? You know that guy’s never going to have $15,000 in his whole life.”

More controversially, the administration wants to make sure child support orders are based on a parent’s actual income.

“We can’t be naive when we’re dealing with parents who have walked away from providing for their children,” says Robert Doar, of the conservative American Enterprise Institute.

Doar, who used to head child support enforcement in New York state, says there will always be some parents who go to great lengths to hide income. He does support suspending debt during incarceration and more job training programs — but he worries that the proposed changes would make it too easy to dismiss cases as “uncollectible.”

“We’re talking about poor, single parents, often moms,” he says. “And the child support collections that they get, when they get it, represents 45 percent of their income.”

Republicans on Capitol Hill have filed bills to block the proposed regulations. They worry they’ll undermine the principle of personal responsibility, a hallmark of child support enforcement measures in the 1990s. They also say any regulatory changes should be made through Congress, not the administration.

One Way To Handle A Court

When you go into court what do you find? Here are some general things to consider.

The judge sits above everyone else. The judge, prosecutors and accused reside in a fenced area. Today, this is NOT a court room, this is the judge’s or magistrate’s chambers. Judges chambers are wherever they set them up to be, not just the office in the back. Court rooms would be for common law which almost never exists today. This is part of the deception. A “magistrate” is not a judge, who sees you in their chambers, where they can do what ever they want, without the constitution, your natural rights, etc. Why is this corporate representative siting in a raised position? Simply put, from childhood you are taught to look up to “authority”. It’s a pretty intimidating environment designed to engender your respect and obedience. They use words in double meanings just as their environment is also part of an act, a stage. Their words are deceptions as are their practices. In reality, the trial or hearing should be held in a sunken area like a surgeons theater where people look down on the judge and oversee the process.

Always insist first and foremost to be “on the record in a judicial hearing”. This removes the magistrate from doing anything they want with you. If you feel forced into accepting the judges chambers, then you can inform them you are in judges chambers, all parties are equals, they have no political jurisdiction, you are a sovereign spirit present by special appearance and there is no contract. More importantly, when you enter the court room and they call your name, loudly proclaim that everyone present is fired and you are a sovereign spirit there by special appearance. Repeat that at any time. If the magistrate threatens (tries to extort your submission), remind them they are fired and you are in judges chambers instead of a professed court room! A judge can not practice law from the bench. They can’t assign you council or otherwise. Remind them they are fired and you have not and will not give them authority to make and legal/lawful determinations for you. You do not consent. Once presented with their offer of contract, you can state your willingness to accept their offer and negotiate a settlement with them. Asserting your authority ends the controversy and the professed judge is now only working out the settlement. The prosecutor will deal with terms and you can agree on terms. They must provide proof of the contract that obligates you to any of the statutes, including any ‘crimes’ that are listed. There is no contract, nor is there a bond for the transaction.

The main purpose of a professed judge or magistrate is to moderate the conflict between you and the prosecution of the government. They will present you with their shopping cart of ‘charges’ or items on sale. You will notice the dollar sign, dollar amounts attached. You are in a martial law tribunal. This is martial law and you are presumed guilty. This is the summary judgement which holds the charges and the plea in one. It is pure, unadulterated fraud. They have no law, no authority, no contract, only deceptions designed to cultivate your submissive acceptance that what is going on is authority over you. This is a common corporate scam of all modern government designed to make them money.

If you are in a trial situation and given an unfavorable verdict, you are being given an offer of a contract. Promptly, loudly, clearly and politely refuse to accept it. Keep refusing to accept until you are asked what you will accept, then state “dismissal of all charges with extreme prejudice”. You are in a martial law court where the verdict and sentence are an offer. Don’t accept it and don’t settle for less.

Do not ever hire an attorney and if you are assigned one, fire that professed attorney. If you are in court, fire them immediately. The attorney works for the court and are officers of the court. They are the tools of your bondage to a fraudulent system.

In Bondage Through Capitis Diminutio Maxima

Capitis Diminutio Maxima (a maximum loss of status through the use of capitalization, e.g. JOHN DOE or DOE JOHN) – The highest or most comprehensive loss of status. This occurred when a man’s condition was changed from one of freedom to one of bondage, when he became a slave. It swept away with it all rights of citizenship and all family rights.

Diminutio. Lat. In civil law. Diminution; a taking away; loss or deprivation.

Capite. – Lat. By the head.

Black’s Law Dictionary explains: the full capitalization of the letters of one’s natural name, results in a diminishing or complete loss of legal or citizenship status, wherein one actually becomes a slave or an item of inventory. The method, by which the State causes a natural person to “volunteer” himself into slavery, is through forming legal joined, implied or stated, with the entity or legal fiction (name all CAPS). Of course, most natural persons wouldn’t willingly form such an unlawful bond like this.  Instead, trickery and obfuscation are used; and this starts when our birth certificates are created.

Child Support Laws Are United Nations Treaty

The “new” child support laws that have grabbed hold of the United States since the 1990’s are part of the growing international power of the United Nations. Many other “first world” nations, as well as ‘lesser’ nations, have adopted similar rules ascribing huge protections for children, while looting the pocketbooks of parents and their rights. Previously, under common law, children were the property of parents. As the United Nations has gained in power and influence, this has changed from nation to nation. This treaty completes the transition that began in 1933 by Franklin Roosevelt, which sets out that citizens are property of the state and that the state holds right to all property.

Nations that ratify this convention are bound to it by international law. Compliance is monitored by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, which is composed of members from countries around the world. Once a year, the Committee submits a report to the Third Committee of the United Nations General Assembly, which also hears a statement from the CRC Chair, and the Assembly adopts a Resolution on the Rights of the Child.

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (commonly abbreviated as the CRC, CROC, or UNCRC) is a human rights treaty setting out the civil, political, economic, social, health and cultural rights of children. It was ratified on November 20, 1989 and is adopted by 193 nations (the United States is currently exempt). The Convention defines a child as any human being under the age of eighteen, unless any states other domestic legislation majority is an earlier age.

The Declaration of the Rights of the Child is the name given to a series of related children’s rights proclamations drafted by Save the Children founder Eglantyne Jebb in 1923. Jebb believed that the rights of a child should be especially protected and enforced and the first stipulations for child’s rights were drafted.

Jebb’s initial 1923 document consisted of the following criteria:

1. The child must be given the means requisite for its normal development, both materially and spiritually.
2. The child that is hungry must be fed, the child that is sick must be nursed, the child that is backward must be helped, the delinquent child must be reclaimed, and the orphan and the waif must be sheltered and succored.
3. The child must be the first to receive relief in times of distress.
4. The child must be put in a position to earn a livelihood, and must be protected against every form of exploitation.
5. The child must be brought up in the consciousness that its talents must be devoted to the service of its fellow men.

These ideas were adopted by the International Save the Children Union in Geneva, Switzerland, on February 23, 1923 and endorsed by the League of Nations General Assembly on November 26, 1924 as the World Child Welfare Charter. However, these proclamations were not enforceable by international law, but rather only guidelines for countries to follow. (UNICEF Corporate History) The original document is in the archives of the city of Geneva, which carries the signatures of various international delegates, including Jebb, Janusz Korczak, and Gustave Ador, a former President of the Swiss Confederation.

The SCIU (International Save the Children Union) merged into the International Union of Child Welfare by 1946, and this group pressed the newly formed United Nations to continue to work for war-scarred children and for adoption of the World Child Welfare Charter.

On November 20,  1959 the United Nations General Assembly adopted a much expanded version as its own Declaration of the Rights of the Child during the Convention on the Rights of the Child, adding ten principles in place of the original five. November 20 has been adopted as the Universal Children’s Day. These statutes of law could be said to give the child a legal position of ‘godhood.’ Children have become the ultimate excuse to do anything that might seem beneficial.

On September 2, 1990 Convention on the Rights of the Child became international law. The Convention consists of 54 articles that address the basic human rights children everywhere are entitled to: the right to survival; to develop to the fullest; to protection from harmful influences, abuse and exploitation; and to participate fully in family, cultural and social life. The four core principles of the Convention are supposedly attributed the status as non-discrimination; devotion to the best interests of the child; the right to life, survival and development; and respect for the views of the child. Today, you hear these same kind of things in U.S. government, spread as righteous propaganda. In 2009, Senator Barbara Boxer sought to ratify the treaty, even though the United States is currently functioning under the regime of the United Nations. The rights of parents have already been eroded in line with United Nations treaty except for the reporting function, resisting the public display of bowing to United Nation authority. The ‘law of the land’ had already been set by current statute.

Governments of countries that have ratified the Convention are required to report to, and appear before, the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child periodically to be examined on their progress with regards to the advancement of the implementation of the Convention and the status of child rights in their country. Their reports and the committee’s written views and concerns are available on the committee’s website.

While the Bradley Amendment was brought into law by the U.S. Congress in 1986, it took the Convention on the Rights of the Child to make it real in your life today. Increasingly, the world has become a group of vassal states under United Nations rule.

Try Your Local Police Department

by Samuel Gaddie & E. Huggins

Remember that your silence is all about your consent as far as the Feds are concerned. That’s their view of the law. When you don’t know what else to do about the outrageous fraudulent conduct of officials in “the name of federal statute,” you might want to consider filing a complaint with your local police. After all, what could it hurt?

When the state messes around with your private information and misrepresents the truth using ‘federal statute,’ you aren’t required to remain silent. File a public corruption complaint. The situation doesn’t really matter. You have a right to protect yourself, even if you believe you are spitting in the wind. You aren’t. Your silence is your consent. They may say that you are an outlaw. The reality is usually quite different. I filed a complaint and you can too.

PROTECTION COMPLAINT

Parents Aren’t The World Full of Deadbeats

by Samuel Gaddie

It’s painfully clear that government is all about passing the buck, so to speak. A few months ago I had a candid conversation with the Director about an obvious ID Theft issue, I was informed by the same director that I was not under their jurisdiction. They were not going to be able to help me with this issue. Is this supposed to make me feel like everything is going to be okay? Whatever various government pseudo-powers tell me and whatever government employed individuals say will not change anything about the outcome of repeated, unwarranted and unconstitutional violation of privacy. These actions amount to nothing less than slander coupled with a complete lack of concern about the well being of HUMANITY.

The public needs to aware of the outrageous and total disregard to the public law regarding Federally Funded Medicaid Public Health through egregious and immoral statutes. As a primary example that I have been dealing with, the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights and the Kentucky Attorney General’s Office do nothing BUT discriminate against so called inadequate people with the attitude what they don’t know won’t hurt them. What is worse is that administering federally funded public health with no regard to the public well is more than a pain to those on the receiving end, but a destruction of the human spirit. This is a TRAVESTY AND AN EMBARRASSMENT to the Commonwealth of Kentucky and all American states that participate in this kind of character and financial assassination.

Now where does Title VI Implementation Plan (Federal Law) fit into this mix?, I know that the Commonwealth of Kentucky holds stock in insurance regarding Medicaid funding and fraud. The OAG is a waste of time on the issue because the corporate state seems to be able to do as it pleases. I have the e-mails to prove it, along with a number of visits to the offices. But I still have correspondence with the US Attorney’s Office who is being ‘reviewed’ by the FBI. They have received a number of emails regarding ID Theft Issues by the corporate state. The county, in my case, Franklin County, simply piles on for the ride. As for this American, I want my IDENTITY back. I want the corporate state to leave my SS# alone. A consumer repair report is not the answer. My name and personal information still wrongly remain on a state deadbeat list without an realistic expectation of the state recognizing its error. Many millions of Americans continue to be exploited by the corporate Feds and the corporate state.

Are Your Rights A Fiction?

by Imagination

Think about it. We putter around endlessly trying to protect our ‘rights.’ We proclaim them from the housetops as if they are a badge of honor and in the end it’s as if we put those rights on our shoulders and dare for someone to knock them off. In fact, you don’t need to dare anyone. Somebody or some entity is only too happy to take those ‘rights’ away. You can name every ‘right’ that you have, but that doesn’t change the reality of the world or the next guy, the next public body that will take them away by proclamation or by trickery.

The truth is that ‘rights’ are a fiction, like many other things that men and women take for granted. Like nationalism and a whole host of other noble ideas, they are an imagination, a concoction of government and other ruling entities on any given level to get your agreement with them. If you behave, your reward is your ‘rights.’ Now I know all sorts of noble ideas and philosophies exist that allow for ‘sacred rights.’ It’s a bunch of balderdash designed to curry favor.

This says nothing about the meaning of the word privilege, which is often conveniently exchanged or confused with rights. Those are just as fragile and strangely enough, always determined by someone else.

How do you feel about this? What is the truth of this matter to you?

The Ruler Sees Himself as Absolute

By Dr. Laurie Roth
February 17, 2012
NewsWithViews.com

The Coliseum is turning on the lights. Attendants have their popcorn and sodas ready. The stands are packed with distracted and thrilled onlookers awaiting ‘the battle of Gods.’ The watchers know this will be a blood bath and a gooey entertainment fest like never before. Who are the players who will delight the crowd? First we have ‘Christians and Jews’ and those dangerous ‘Constitutionalists’ on one side. Look, they are behaving just like King Obama said – holding their Bibles and being ‘bitter clingers.’ On the other side, are the leaders of Islam, sharia law and global elitism. These are headed by their savior King Obama.

In special, heated box seats I see the UN and Muslim leadership from the 57 Muslim countries. In another box next door, painted in streaks of bright colors are all the unemployed movie stars and wanna be terrorists such as William Ayers, Bernadine Dorn, who obsessively stand with Palestine and anyone attacking Israel. Next to them by the Pop machine are the traitorous sell out media and leftist Political leaders who routinely sell out America and march her toward the new Holocaust – the control and eradication of Christians who support the Constitution and Jews who just won’t go away.

The stage has been set for our demise. 72 FEMA camps have been activated. The NDAA Bill has been voted into law, launched by Marxist posers – John McCain and Carl Levin. We all know this by now, but this gives Obama the power to seize any American using our military at any time. He can grab us without charges, without a trial and hold us indefinitely on anything he can dream up.

None of this is new. The pattern established by Hitler is simply being copied by Obama and his thugs. Remember, Obama is the teleprompter King. He copies his heroes, Saul Alinski, Hitler and other dictators. He also obeys what his handlers tell him, global elitists and Islamic leaders.

Adolph Hitler wrenched Democracy and freedom from Germany’s hands with ‘Hitler’s Enabling Act’ voted legally into law, March 23, 1933. It was also called ‘Law for Removing the Distress of the People and the Reich.’ You may recall that Hitler had the Nazis burned down the Reichstag German Government building so they could create enough panic to get the votes for Hitler’s enabling act. He blamed the Communists for the deed and people believed him. That was the end of democracy and freedom in Germany.

In a similar fashion we have seen the NDAA law slaughter our Constitution and rights. It has given our President total power over the people and the legal ability to use military force to assault and detain us for a trumped up reason. Responding to the signing of the NDAA Bill, Obama stated he would never abuse the power. GOP front runner Mitt Romney also a supporter of this bill said he would never abuse the power due to his character.

Listen to the words of another famous person, Adolph Hitler. Right before the vote for Hitler’s Enabling Act, Hitler made a speech to the Reichstag where he pledged restraint and use of power. “The government will make use of these power only insofar as they are essential for carrying out vitally necessary measures….The number of cases in which an internal necessity exists for having recourse to such a law is in itself a limited one.” These were the actual words of Hitler to the Reichstag.

Hitler promised a ton of lies before the vote. He promised an end to unemployment and said he would promote peace with France, Great Britain and the Soviet Union. Hitler and the Nazis were part of the ‘Green’ environmental agenda and supportive of national health care as Obama is.

We have a usurper as President whose world view is one also of transforming America into a Marxist/Communist regime. From the beginning the signs were everywhere that we had a tyrant for a President. Don’t forget that Obama and Michelle were supportive of and at flag burning events and stated publicly before Obama was elected how they hated America. In fact Michelle said she only started to love America after Obama was elected. Obama constantly has surrounded himself with Communists, anti American and anti Jewish colleagues and employees. His actions from day one have been against Jews, Christians, conservatives, our Constitution and against God himself.

Obama will not willfully give up his power. He has more to finish here and abroad. I predict, as the months unfold toward Election Day 2012 that Internet, conservative journals and speech will be greatly diminished. This will be a financial attack, regulation attack and set of contrived legal attacks. Talk radio and conservative commentators will also be attacked and silenced.

Watch for contrived and invented threats to attack parts of America, while the Russians are blamed……oh yeah, that was Hitler. I mean, while the American Christians and conservatives are blamed. George Soros has predicted riots in the streets in America. The Occupy Wall street groups did plenty of damage but it wasn’t quite the ace of destruction Obama needed to start falsely identifying dangerous people and groups. Watch out for bold attacks aimed at national Tea Party groups and leaders; Watch out for Pastors to be arrested for preaching from The Holy Bible and not editing their speech; Eventually as in the days of ancient Rome, Christians will be considered the enemy of the Government since we won’t submit to falsely turning people in, abandoning freedom of Religion and speech. These assaults and threats are already happening and unfolding.

We are seeing Obama war with the Catholic Church and Christian faith. His healthcare mandate intends to force churches and religious organizations to provide abortion drugs and supportive products. They and insurance plans will also have to provide surgical sterilization. There is no place in our Constitution where insurance companies and Religious groups can be forced to pay for abortion services and products. Yet, this President, who hates the Constitution just continues to ignore it as he takes bold leaps forward into his beloved new and improved, Fascist America.

We have a President who is demanding the nation pay for abortions regardless of our beliefs. If we let him, he will start forcing assisted suicide to all who are disabled, medically too expensive or just too old to contribute anymore. Remember, this was already done in one of the most civilized countries on earth, Germany. We are watching it unfold right before our eyes in America. History MUST NOT repeat itself.

Those of you who love our Constitution, freedoms, Judeo Christian values and heritage, understand that you are on a growing enemy list. ‘Bitter clingers’ that you are…..buy more guns, Bibles and ammo now. Don’t ever agree to give your guns or neighbors up. Pray hard for your country and get behind Patriot Conservatives everywhere. Boot the sold out establishment out, whether Democrat or Republican. Don’t ever submit to forced Health care and controls of the IRS anywhere near your health, life and accounts. Don’t ever submit to authorities arresting you in the middle of the night. Demand the repeal of NDAA and everything else Obama has touched and voted into law.

Garnishment Subject to Certain Protections

This is knowledge that may be of some value to you as you live out your life under child support laws in the USA.

The use of garnishment is governed by federal statutes (there may be some state codes as well) such as 15 USC 1673, and its companion law, 15 USC 1675 pertaining to the very existence, or potential existence of enforcement of any order violating the maximum certain percentages of actual disposable income– rendering the support and/or garnishment order in violation of the law,– (particularly see paragraph C therein). Whichever statute provides greater protection to the Respondent, prevails.

These [state, if any in MA– there are some in IN] federal statutes guarantee protection (to the Respondent) from having “imputed income” orders.

These statutes provide protection (to the Respondent) regarding his rights to be free from unlawful child support or any kind of garnishment.

§ 1673. Restriction on garnishment

Title 15 of the US Code as currently published by the US Government reflects the laws passed by Congress as of Jan. 7, 2011, and it is this version that is published here.

(a) Maximum allowable garnishment

Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section and in section 1675 of this title, the maximum part of the aggregate disposable earnings of an individual for any workweek which is subjected to garnishment may not exceed

(1) 25 per centum of his disposable earnings for that week, or
(2) the amount by which his disposable earnings for that week exceed thirty times the Federal minimum hourly wage prescribed by section 206 (a)(1) of title 29 in effect at the time the earnings are payable,
whichever is less. In the case of earnings for any pay period other than a week, the Secretary of Labor shall by regulation prescribe a multiple of the Federal minimum hourly wage equivalent in effect to that set forth in paragraph (2).

(b) Exceptions

(1) The restrictions of subsection (a) of this section do not apply in the case of

(A) any order for the support of any person issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or in accordance with an administrative procedure, which is established by State law, which affords substantial due process, and which is subject to judicial review.
(B) any order of any court of the United States having jurisdiction over cases under chapter 13 of title 11.
(C) any debt due for any State or Federal tax.

(2) The maximum part of the aggregate disposable earnings of an individual for any workweek which is subject to garnishment to enforce any order for the support of any person shall not exceed—

(A) where such individual is supporting his spouse or dependent child (other than a spouse or child with respect to whose support such order is used), 50 per centum of such individual’s disposable earnings for that week; and
(B) where such individual is not supporting such a spouse or dependent child described in clause (A), 60 per centum of such individual’s disposable earnings for that week; except that, with respect to the disposable earnings of any individual for any workweek, the 50 per centum specified in clause (A) shall be deemed to be 55 per centum and the 60 per centum specified in clause (B) shall be deemed to be 65 per centum, if and to the extent that such earnings are subject to garnishment to enforce a support order with respect to a period which is prior to the twelve-week period which ends with the beginning of such workweek.
(c) Execution or enforcement of garnishment order or process prohibited

No court of the United States or any State, and no State (or officer or agency thereof), may make, execute, or enforce any order or process in violation of this section.

§ 1675. Exemption for State-regulated garnishments

The Secretary of Labor may by regulation exempt from the provisions of section 1673 (a) and (b)(2) of this title garnishments issued under the laws of any State if he determines that the laws of that State provide restrictions on garnishment which are substantially similar to those provided in section 1673 (a) and (b)(2) of this title.
