Making non-custodial parents pay all, or in the majority of cases (in my view, I'm not going to cite studies on the actual cost of raising a child, and they all vary widely) far more than the cost of raising a child from the outset is assuming they won't meet the needs of the child without state coercion. I'm not being sarcastic when I say this, but really in this day the thought a non-custodial parent might be capable and willing to meet the needs of their children without being told/forced to by the state is not in anyone's contemplation. There is an almost society wide assumption that they won't, without giving them any chance to do so. Exactly the same assumed guilt you acknowledge with stop and frisk. Only in the case of racial discrimination most people can't stomach that, but unjustified, outright transfers of wealth from men to women with children is not something that will attract protests. You can suggest a custodial parent may not petition the state for support if it is being made (and I'm sure this happens), but you underestimate the greed of some who see the potential personal gain for themselves that can be realized by enforcing child support laws even if the needs of the child are being met without state intervention. When laws allow for this sort of unilateral choice for exploitation of another they are unjust.

Ok I did my part, I bought No More Heroes, but they were out of Zach and Wiki.
Ok got Zach and Wiki, now if I could just finally finish Twilight Princess so I can play all these Wii games I got waiting. And no I won't buy Okami.
DNF, now there is a game that should have been scrapped completely. Reminds me of a kid whose been in school for 12 years and still doesn't know what he wants to do. At one point you just need to man up and get a job.
