If you don't pay child support they take your drivers license, which means it will be harder to get and keep a job to pay your child support. It makes very little sense. The state should garnish the wages. Taking away the means to get to work to earn money for debt is ridiculous.


I agree that the policy of suspending licenses seems counterproductive, but in many cases these deadbeats are working off the books for cash so there are no official "wages" to garnish.


You've punished them, but clearly they still won't be paying
