Federal incentives exist to make children fatherless
In this
article Phyllis Schlafly asks why Congress has appropriated taxpayer money to
give perverse incentives that break up families and deprive children of their fathers.
She states that the built-in financial incentives in the current child-support
system have expanded the tragedy of fatherless children from the welfare class
to millions of non-welfare divorced couples.
This
article does not address the taking of children into state care but it is
presented here because of the similarities between the system in which children
are deprived of their fathers and the system in which children are deprived of
their parents and families when the social services place them in foster homes
among total strangers.
