ARE YOU KIDDING? If a non welfare recipient wants to use the Welfare Program office (DCSE) to collect their child support money for them, instead of doing it themselves by going to court a filing a peitition or motion - then they SHOULD pay for it.
The Gov't doesn't "create income". This is a SERVICE -by the Gov't agency - for WELFARE APPLICANTS. If you're not on welfare, you get to PAY the Gov't to do your parenting job for you.
