Sorry PAR35, you are wrong on this. First off, I'm not liberal. Far from it. Secondly, I'm not advising that we LAW-ABIDING tax payers pay for his children. I'm advising him to either OBEY the law, or PAY THE PRICE. If you get sentenced to jail, you should be ... IN JAIL. Not working 5 days, in jail for 2, working 5 days, in jail for two. That's not a real deterrent, obviously becuase idiot-boy did the same crime AGAIN. And lastly, I firmly believe my taxes are TOO HIGH, and the government is in too much of my business. You really have no idea about me, and didn't take the time to really READ what I wrote, did you? If you commit a crime, you should pay the penalty. Whether that is jail time, money, or whatever else. If you do another crime, or even more stupid, the same crime again, then you should get hit twice as hard. Keep the penalty up exponentially until it's actually enough of a deterrant that you STOP BEING A CRIMINAL.

So you don't want the parent to be able to support the children, and you don't want to support them through the welfare program, so I suppose the solution is to starve the children for the sins of the parent.

By the way - have you checked the mazimum penaties for common traffic violations?
