At my job in HR a year or so ago, I was shocked how many single young guys were earning $450. a week and only taking home between $200-325 a week because they were being hit up by the State for child support payments. The State takes it directly from the employer, you know. Some of these guys were getting hit up for more than one kid with two different women.
One guy had to pay for 8 kids and it was going to 5 different women!! (No shit). He once joked to me and the director of accounting --- that he felt like a slave laborer.
Wisely, I just smiled and kept on walking....
