John seems to have confused my history with his own. Let us examine
his errors.
In 1998, I had a wife, who had an income. Since we filed joint income
taxes, and I did the paperwork, I (which is to say we) paid taxes on
our income, about a third of which was generated from her income. I
understand how John could have misunderstood, and I hope this is
clearer.
In 2002, as I write this, I have an ex-wife. I paid no money in 2002 to
the fed or anyone else based on her income. In 2001 and 2000, when I
had a wife from whom I was separeted and filing singly, I paid no
money to the fed or anyone else based on her income.
Since we had no children, I paid no money on this non-existent child,
either. However, if my now-ex-wife and I had a child, it would have
been OUR child, not HER child. THe fact that John regards HIS child
as solely HER child tells you -- once again -- everything you need to
know about him and about why a court ruled that he ought not have
custody of the children he sired.

Happily, my bank account is still mine, and doing quite nicely. Since
my then-wife and I were grown-ups, we were able to go to divorce mediation,
split up our worldly goods, get a divorce finalized, and go our
separate ways. Of course, JOhn's own marriage was short one man, so
this wasn't an option.
