I never said anything even remotely close to that.
Beg to differ, but by stating that child support was around when no one was getting it means you either don't believe they didn't get it or you're lying about it having been around. So which one would it be?
I didn't say that "child support was around when no one was getting it." I am sure that women received child support long before the federal government got involved in 1975. The rate of compliance with child support orders has not increased since then, it's decreased. And there has been no increase in the offset to welfare payments through child support in that time either. That's decreased too. That's what the real data says. That's what's happening in real life.

Calling in your buddies for backup? Go back and read the references.
You said CS has existed more than 200 years and admitted to not saying anything even close to single parents back then who didn't get support as being ficticious. That means you believe there WERE single parents who didn't get support in a time when you say CS existed. Oops, you're spinning Rog. Ping RobRoy again. You need the help.
