California is Up for Grabs $800 million child support accounting system may be on the fiscal chopping block http://mensnewsdaily.com/archive/u-v/untershine/03/untershine081203.htm

California Governor Gray Davis seems to be losing ground in his attempt to hold on to Executive power, in the wake of the anticipated recall election. A last minute attempt to allow undocumented Mexicans to hold a driver's license may not be enough to guarantee a Hispanic landslide. Davis may choose to grant illegal immigrants free car insurance to sway any Mexicans still on the fence.

To insure a backdoor victory, California Lieutenant Governor Cruz Bustamante has entered the race to allow Davis the opportunity for role reversal if worse comes to worse. The backlash of this loss of power would result in the Hispanic constituency being forced to speak and read English, while interrupting the flow of lotto winnings dispensed to Mexican visitors.

The California Governor's race has narrowed down to Bustemonte/Davis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Arianna Huffington, and Peter Ueberroth who will all be forced to establish a platform that will guarantee the California voters that the state's fiscal problems will go away. The actual details of fiscal savings and social policy may be required, rather than a "Trust me, I'm from L.A.".

Aside from the anticipated mudslinging, regarding the California re-election, the debates between candidates might bring insight into their qualifications. What do these candidates think the major issues are, regarding the California state of affairs?

• Are they aware that California loses over $150 million per year in federal funding to perpetrate financial fraud against parents only? \1

• Are they aware that California has contracted to pay IBM $800 million to develop a federally approved child support enforcement accounting system that is designed to plunder the finances and invade the privacy of parents only? \2

• Are they aware that 26% of all female homicide victims in California were killed by their spouse? \3

• Are they aware that over 40% of all female homicide victims in California were killed by a family member? \3

• Are they aware that over 40% of all child homicide victims in California were killed by a family member? \3

• Are they aware that Policy Studies Inc. of Denver, Colorado is in complete control of the California Family Law system? \4

• Are they aware that men who are not parents are forced to pay child support to insure California federal funding? \5

I don't know if getting the family (special interest) vote is necessarily a means to win an election, but I would hope it would outweigh that of the homosexuals, feminists, land barons, corporations, or the Mexicans. After all, a nation is judged by how they treat their families, a family is judged by how they treat their children, and our children will judge us all.

Most of the points just described were detailed in a submittal that I sent to the US House of Representatives, Committee on Ways and Means, on 07-26-03 entitled "Welfare Design Review", in support of the recent "Waste, Fraud, and Abuse" hearings held on 07-17-03. I wasn't the only singularity that had an axe to grind and the willingness to redress a few issues. I know of two other "whistle-blowers" who attempted to "send a kite to the shot-callers".

• Bill Woods, associated with "Dads in Family Court", threw down the gauntlet and invited us to embrace the challenge. Bill Wood's personal submittal provided a very elegant history of how we arrived in this quagmire of family ABUSE. \6

• Steve Cloer is associated with "Fathers Are Parents Too". Steve Cloer's personal submittal detailed the many ways the destruction of the family contributed to WASTE. \7

• Jim Untershine is associated with "GZS of LB". Jim Untershine's personal submittaldetailed the Family Law system and Child Support Enforcement in the state of California as a clear case of taxpayer FRAUD. \8

"Welfare Design Review" was basically a progressive recantation of my articles, which were published exclusively by MensNewsDaily.com. (MensNewsDaily is the only Internet conduit for "hang down" gender issues, run by the illustrious emancipator and All-American, Mike LaSalle). The following is included in the "Level of Involvement" section of the submittal and is relevant to the California problem:

• Identify independent entities that are paid by state taxpayers to poison the antidote to the welfare disease that has been prescribed by our Legislature. \4

• Identify independent entities that are paid by US taxpayers to cover up the effects of an out of control family law system to our Legislature. \9

• Identify Secretaries that have sabotaged the intent of the federally mandated child support guideline review by "silencing or eliminating all advocates of change amongst those who advise legislation". \10

• Identify Judicial bodies who knowingly allow the misapplication of the federal law to provide the means to exploit children for money.

• Identify Attorney Generals who refuse to enforce laws uniformly throughout their state. \11

• Identify state Governors who advocate paternity fraud for profit. \5

The bottom line of the California problem is the state's greed for federal funding and it's tacky justification to collect it. To identify the only special interest group that is worthy of recognition, California must identify our children and the families that are struggling to support them.

California Family Code 4053 e) states: "The guideline seeks to place the interests of children as the state's top priority". I believe it is high time California starts to live up to this pledge, and stops using our children's name in vein regarding their exploitation of children for money.
