I kind of agree with the posters opinion that $42K could pay $500. per month but the law now demands that amount from parents making $20K and from parents making less then that.
$20K, is ruffly $10. per hour for 40 hour week with no lack of work. BUT the present child support laws demand at least 25 percent of take home pay or up to 65 percent of take home pay. Thus we have deadbroke poor parents deadlocked in jail with out the ability to obey the law when they want to.
