The cause of abandoned children is not Congress or laws or government. The cause of abandoned children are the parents who abandon or renounce them.
If you want the subject to be "abandoned children" we'll be off on another track. But I have the feeling that you're inventing your own world. You'll be able to logically prove anything you want to in your imaginary world.
If you don't like child support laws then you should work to make people more personally responsible for their actions.
I am. The only way to do that is to remove government control far enough that people are able to make their own decisions and act on them without shooting a lot of policemen first.
Here is the moral-liberal dictum: "Allow me to be irresponsible, and in return I'll allow you all to pay for the consequences of my irresponsibility."
You're trying to start that argument with the wrong person. Maybe you can find the right target at TurnLeft.com

The only way to [make people personally responsible for their actions] is to remove government control far enough that people are able to make their own decisions and act on them without shooting a lot of policemen first. The law only gets involved when a parent chooses to act irresponsibly by abandoning his own children.
