Do they not sign a contract guaranteeing support up to a certain time frame? Can’t we just sue the shit out of them to recoup the costs?
Here’s an idea, ask other states around us what they use and just fucking copy it. Is that really hard? Maybe Nikki can ask Gov. Deal what Georgia uses. She seems to be on really good terms with him judging from when they spoke about DHEC.
That would be, at the least, the second such lawsuit. In 1994, the state entered a contract with Unysis Corporation to get the system up and running. Ultimately Unysis and the state ended up in litigation which lasted for years, consuming more time and money. Later, in July 2007, the state announced that it had entered a contract with Saber Corporation, to great fanfare and a price tag of $89.2 million, to create to the state’s automated child support enforcement system. Then, EDS (Ross Perot’s IT corporation), announced in November 2007 it was acquiring Saber, only to have Hewlitt Packard acquire EDS in May, 2008. Now, I can’t imagine those transitions were seamless, and could only contribute to this quagmire. What’s more, given the rapid pace of technological change, any delays in the design and building of such a system threaten to make it obsolescent at its launch.
Hear, hear. Like needs to be done with every one of our state agencies. I’m sure there are success stories abounding, just pick the ones that work, emulate. How fucking hard can it be? Oh, I forgot, to be successful, you can’t have your finger in the pie.
I wonder what all the governor’s talk about when they go on their annual meetings, probably not this! There are certain basic federal mandates that someone has figured out how to handle, kinda’ goes against the grain of state righter’s to share information…sheesh

As the story comes together, the person who caused this situation
did not cover their tracks. In this video, the father went in-depth on the
mother’s mistake. Therefore, in this video, you will see a sad timing of an
event; however, the mother did not think the father would bring this one up. (There
are more videos being produced-stay tuned)!

Typical. Too bad for the kids this bitch doesn’t get wacked.

In the past video, the father just identified the real cause
of his child support arrears however he discovers there is more to the problem

Good god, there has to be an app for that. Google it. Results would probably be better. Just damn.

Lillian McBride has time on her hands – just put her in charge and she’ll get it up and running – she knows how to “fix things”—-

Of course the fines are just cuts in the money the Feds were sending to the state anyway. So in Republican speak, there really was no fine. You know, its the flip side of the argument that giving people a tax credit to pay for something is not the same as the government paying for it, even though either way the government is out the money. i.e. not getting money you were entitled to is not the same as paying money.
It all makes sense in the minds of the neoteapartyconservatarians.

Have they fired the Child Support Director or the IT Director?
Should be both.

“South Carolina’s judicial branch ought to be in charge of establishing its own system for handling child support payments”
You do realize that child support is a matter that crosses state lines, do you not?

Its not exactly an unfunded mandate- if you look into it, South Carolina took the money the Feds were giving out to create the database. What they did with it is anyone’s guess
