I wanted to separate a discussion out of the "What would you do with $10 billion" thread as I am interested in the Board's opinions and perspectives on my response vis-a-vis Divorce, specifically "No-Fault" Divorce and Out of wedlock parenting.

Specifically, I'd appreciate your mentioning your personal experiences with divorce, the kind, and the consequences as you perceive them, along with thoughts on the items listed below.

To begin, I come from an intact family, where no one in my extended blood family has ever been divorced. Unfortunately, I experienced an unagreed-to "no-fault" move-away divorce where I lost my son unconstitutionally (the UCCJEA designed to prevent this situation, as proclaimed in a recent syllabus to a case in the Supreme Court "is routinely ignored on the local level.") to a woman who abused our son as an alcoholic (of which I have a valid and accredited medical diagnosis on my son by an expert team of geneticists and child-development specialists in the field of Fetal Alcohol and Drug abuse), yet still manages to manipulate the system and myself to the tune of thousands of dollars a year, all while being unemployed and receiving multiple state benefits while I have never taken and received none, even though at times I have been eligible.

THEREFORE:

I would use the $10 billion as an opportunity to positively impact and transform our culture and society to make America strong and families stable again.

Subject to the caveat that they were not involved in the use of any illegal drugs, including marijuana (even in Colorado):

1. I'd cover child support expenses for all divorced fathers whose wives left them without their consent but who still do their best to stay in their children's lives.

2. I would make it a donation so their former spouses could not steal it back from them.

3. I'd hire the legal expertise to have all unconstitutionally imprisoned fathers released from prison for being in arrears on child support, which is, after all, just another form of re-institutionalizing slavery in this country.

4. I'd hire lobbyists to have the laws in all 50 states on child support changed so that child support payments would be considered income to the receiving parent and not the one making the payment.

5. I'd fund a legal fund so that neither parent could move more than 50 miles away from the other if they wanted to get a divorce if they used a "no-fault" reason for the divorce if they had any children together. Children are a responsibility and their well-being comes first. If they are not married but had their children out of wedlock, they would be similarly prohibited. If people don't like it, they should not have chosen to have the sex that produced the children in the first place. It is both their responsibilities.

5. I'd fund brain-based research and teaching for special needs children,

6. and set up an additional fund to take care of all children who were the victims of fetal alcohol and/or drugs and smoking to help them with the therapy needs of the after-effects of the abuse.

7. I'd lobby the federal govt for a law that would deny any federal programs or benefits to divorced parents who use "No-fault" as their reason for divorce or for parents who are unmarried and had their children out of wedlock, including welfare, ssi, wic, snap (food stamps) obamacare, medicaid, et al and thus take away the incentive to profit from breaking up a family by making the taxpayers pay for it.

8. I would lobby to deny state benefits if they receive any federal funding for their program. If the parent that has the children and that parent was the one who initiated the divorce (the one who left) , and if it is a No-fault divorce used as the reason, if they do not and can not take care of their children, I'd remove the children and return them to the other parent (the left behind spouse) and if the other parent refuses to care for them I would then and place them in orphanages and make them eligible for adoption by married, never-divorced parents who can demonstrate the ability and who make a written contractual commitment to spend and educate the children they adopt.

That would probably more than spend the $10 billion. In short, I'd work to stop the insanity and the payoff of breaking up families in this country or paying for people's promiscuity, and the incentive to create out of wedlock families where the taxpayers take the hit, I'd create harsh penalties with real consequences for people who are only "baby mamas or baby daddies" without a corresponding commitment, and I'd use these tactics to eliminate the entire federal deficit by removing the demand and need for most of the entitlement programs that result from the blind acceptance of irresponsible people destroying families and having random sex without taking responsibility for their choices and promiscuity.

To be sure, people could still act irresponsibly by choice and be promiscuous, but no longer would the federal and state governments and the taxpayers pay for people's stupidity and selfishness. And there would finally be real consequences to people's actions in these areas that would be severe enough to perhaps incentivize a change in people to act less out of selfishness and stupidity and more out of duty and responsibility and fairness. Children would have an opportunity to escape from growing up in these destructive environments where they learn to accept and repeat the losing cycle.
