Texas gets $160K in child support linked to car registration

You might want to read up a little more on the shooter.

Correction.
Looks like I am the one that needed to read up on the shooter.
My bad.

My ex gets full amt too. It just takes 4 wks once started. We both paid our attorneys so it is probably a court fee. If I pay her direct she gets it early and even get $3 extra s month because I prefer round numbers. I'm all about taking care of my kids. It's funding her Christmas trip to Hawaii that pisses me off. And then having some jackass lefty trying to justify it because we had a kid.....

I have a spreadsheet detailing every cent I've paid since the day we divorced. I know that this summer it will be 113k total when done. That puts me around 108k to date. She was supposed to pay half his driver's ed too.... I paid that, bought his truck, insure it....

And to top it off. When he lived with his mom his grades were 70..... just being passed to move on. Got a report card yesterday and lowest grade now is 84. Yet some Libtard is trying to tell me I'm doing it wrong. He and his very little sister are playing in the snow right now. He will also be at his job tomorrow working his shift. He's a good kid. I just didn't pick a very good first wife.

I didn't read most of your post but read where you said you pay her directly at times. This in the eyes of the State of Texas is not a payment. You must go directly through San Antonio if you want credit for payment. Lawyers may be able to get into a court record your stubs as payment but it is a hassle. At least in Dallas Co.

I can also tell you countless times where the spouse had records for years of direct payments signed by the co-parent and the state said they hadn't paid. Even in the cases where the other party wasn't complaining to the court. It's all about that money for the state.

He's far from a Lib, but he DOES play the devil's advocate like a MF...

I'd have to disagree here. For the reason that if he did it a few times, sure. Doing it non stop, is for someone that holds those beliefs. Why else would he do it constantly? Nobody would do that, who doesn't actually hold those beliefs. You just couldn't keep doing it. At some point it would conflict with your real beliefs too much. But he never stops. I'd say its much more likely he just pretends a bit when he's around the opposition, so that he fits in better. Many regressives are known to do this.

I know this. She and I have a pretty good relationship actually and are both working towards our son's best interests. There will be no more going to court. We've considered it and it's not worth it. It's honestly way better to figure out things ourselves, considering college is next. As long as Jr. keeps his job and keeps his grades reasonable, I will pay for that too. He is going to start in Jr. College though as he isn't really ready for a 4 year school and there is no good reason to pay 10X as much for the same education for the first 2 years.

There are lot of "laws" on the books where I would file nine million appeals and never pay. This is one of those "laws." I'm still waiting to get a ticket on a tollway too, because you aren't going to fine me for driving on a private road. You can't have it both ways like our gov't seems to want these days.

@Anthony, I'm not defending Racr, but I do know him personally. He's far from a Lib, but he DOES play the devil's advocate like a MF and it DOES get under ppls skin, like he's done to you. I don't always agree w/his POV, but I learned long ago that arguing with him is fruitless. FWIW....

Between the two of you and your 27,000 posts, I'm not going to even try to show you the light anymore. Your bud is a libtard whether or not he likes playing Obama's advocate or not.

No kid = no skin in the game.

I probably paid more in taxes last year than racrguy made gross, so that's not worth discussing with him either.

[svauto-erotic855]

I've got plenty of skin in the game. Like you, I pay taxes to programs I get no benefit from. Namely school taxes. If you want to start bitching about taxpayers having to support other people, you and your ex need to pay the entirety of the bill it costs to educate your spawn. Of course you won't do that, because you're perfectly fine bitching about social programs on one hand, and being the beneficiary of them on the other. That's where your lack of objectivity has fooled you into thinking you're fully self sustaining.

Using the public schools as an example is a mistake because they represent more government waste. I would hardly call someone with kids in a public school as a beneficiary of a social program; calling them a victim of a social program would be a more accurate description. Public schools should not exist. Americans were better educated before public schools came into being and the substandard education that they provide cost about 4 times more then it should.

Considering all of the bitching that you typed about having to support someone else spawn how would you feel if Trump axed the Department of Education and every red state closed every public school?

I get what you're saying just wanted to let you know in case you didn't. Keep in mind the ex doesn't have to be the one to take you to court. The State can do a review and see you haven't paid through them and act on their own accord which puts you in the pokey depending on the judge.

You trying to give him a heart attack? He reads that, he's going to have chest pain..

Where was I complaining about paying school taxes? Are you making shit up again? I said I got no benefit from it, that doesn't mean it's a complaint...

You have yet to come up with a well reasoned response. You have to start trying to show someone the light before saying you're going to stop.

As I recall, he's a pretty staunch Libertarian, or was. Again, I learned long ago not to argue w/him or try to dissuade him, he's what you call hard headed. That said, he's not a bad guy, but I know for certain he enjoys getting a rise outta people.

You'd be inclined to think that it were cognitive dissonance, but again, he likes to get a rise outta people in very much the same way Rodney did/does.

I'm not an uber libertarian. I recognize that there needs to be reasonable government regulations on issues that arise.

Again, I learned long ago not to argue w/him or try to dissuade him, he's what you call hard headed.

I will believe any fact that someone can prove and doesn't have a logical problem. In the same breath, I care not about opinions and feelings. They're useless.

That said, he's not a bad guy, but I know for certain he enjoys getting a rise outta people.

This is true.

I'm not sure why you're bothering to respond to him. I've had him on ignore for quite a while now.

[Gasser64]

Cause you couldn't take the heat!

Didn't seem to work out too well for shanayqua. But, it looks like racr is applying for the job as his replacement. Oh well.
