Re: spousal support
      10/12/10 11:24 AM

What they are doing to men on a daily basis??? From my perspective, they are putting their careers 2nd to their husbands careers - so that if/when a divorce happens, they are at a signifcant financial disadvantage. They are putting their children first.

At the time of divorce, the husbands sometimes have 10+ years more than the wife in the workforce, i.e. raises, promotions, etc... That's time/income that can never be made up.

Alimony helps make that sacrifice equitable. It enables a family to put the family/children first for a couple of years without only one spouse taking on all of the risk/sacrifice for doing so.

It enables a family to be able to operate as one unit instead of 2 seperate people looking out for their own best interests.

It puts the risk/sacrifice on both spouses shoulders...not just the spouse who made the career sacrifice.

Thank goodness the law and the courts see that even if you don't.

The Gov cannot give anything to anyone - that they have not first taken away from someone else.
