    Didn’t pay your Minch money? Then the state will now spend thousands over thousands of dollars to ruin your child’s life!

      Seriously fucked up. They could feed all those kids for free for a fraction of what it would cost the state to forcibly put them in foster care.

      I’m always reminded that the cruelty IS the point.

        They’re going to pay those other parents a stipend. Pay a case worker and their manager, pay an attorney. Those case workers are already bruised and battered nearly to death.
