We are smothering under the 50 years of good intentions like this. Whatever good was done is not worth the cost. There's probably an entire office building in D.C. administering this piece of garbage legislation.

It's a complicated problem, but government has created the divorce and single parent problem with the assistance it provides. * * *

Like I said, I've forgotten the details. Maybe it took federal action to deal with the cross border enforcement problems? It didn't. The feds have no interest here and should keep out of it. There are numerous laws that are "uniform," meaning there are model laws and states may enact them verbatim or with modifications. Think the Uniform Commercial Code as a good example. It addresses sales, negotiable instruments, etc. In the area of support enforcement, there is the Uniform Child Support Enforcement Act. States enact it and agree to cooperate with each other and to respect support decrees entered by other states. en.wikipedia.org Federal involvement not needed.
