Serious question, how do they do that, while in prison with no residual income? And if they were already near broke, how does this work?
I would like for someone to try and get corporations to pay child support when one of their workers dies from neglectful maintenance or dangerous policies.
That doesn't seem like a bad thing per se- but I do somewhat worry that this would simply lead to corporations refusing to hire parents, firing people who become parents (for "some other reason" if necessary), or at least preferentially hiring people deemed unlikely to have children.
Why do I get the feeling that corporations would excuse said selective hiring as "green?"
it probably won't hurt in most cases. BUT if your parents get murdered by someone with money, you're at least getting some kinda support.
Seize their assets and auction them off. Use the proceeds to fund the reparations.
And if their assets are basically worthless too?
Then yeah, there's nothing to do besides garnish their wages after they get out (if they get out.)
Still, it's something that they should do if they can.
