Turn the Tide of SUICIDE

One of the reasons that Veterans are dying by SUICIDE is that they are being illegally stripped of their benefits by state courts.

Photo: Alone on the Edge States are committing fraud upon the United States under Title IV-D by converting veteran benefits into state revenue based on Rose v. Rose and a tiny loophole in 42 U.S.C. § 659 that ONLY applied to retirees in the 1970s.

Certain lawyers are taking advantage of this corruption by profiteering on military and veteran families until all of the income and resources are used up.

State judges refuse to obey the law because admitting the lack of jurisdiction on veteran benefits would expose them and their friends to personal liability for over 35 YEARS of predatory corruption and profiteering.

In the entire history of this country, states have NEVER been given the right to collect veteran benefits or the power to decide who gets them. The law says what it means to protect children by protecting the entire military and veteran family from hardship and loss.



Why is it so hard to find help?

Almost every veteran going through this will search the internet with a simple "veteran benefits child support" or "can veteran benefits be used for child support?" Go ahead. Try it. ... See what I mean.

Almost every search will be filled with garbage from lawyers, judges and state officials all saying that veteran benefits could be used for child support depending on state law. That is a stone cold LIE. Whenever the veteran asks about "veteran benefits and alimony," the answers are about the same, ... also pure lies.

Search engines and AI bots cannot tell when lawyers are liars. All they can do is go through their databases and stack up what they find, even if it is a pile of garbage. They are not inspired to question lies or verify facts. If they did, they would have already cleaned up all of the the lies and garbage on the internet.

ALL of the lawyers, judges and state officials who are making money by the predatory corruption and profiteering on veteran benefits will repeat the same fairy tales to protect their paychecks. These are the ones who really need to be disbarred, disrobed and permanently dismissed from public office. If they cannot obey the law, then their credentials are not worth the toilet paper they are printed on.

Remember: Search engines and AI bots are just fancy computer programs and they can only do what to tell them or spit out the most simple answer to any question asked. So, perhaps a different question might work;

The answers to these questions point out the indisputable fact that Congress exercised constitutional power to make it clear that states have no possibility of jurisdiction to touch VA benefit at any time, under any circumstances. The lawyers and state officials profiteering on military and veteran families will say anything to protect their paychecks, but their fraud is catching up to them.

Read "Child Support and the ABSURD Mythology of Rose" to see through their whole predatory scam.

Every single time a state judge uses children as leverage to extract money from VA benefits or information from VA records, that judge is causing harm and hardship to the whole family in the complete absence of all jurisdiction on the subject matter of Title 38. See the list of Federal Rights Often Violated by State Courts (2020).


FACTS

In the entire 250 year history of this country, states have NEVER been given the right to collect veteran benefits or the power to decide who gets them. Veteran benefits have NEVER been part of state jurisdiction.

The Rose v. Rose (1987) decision pointed out that 38 U.S.C. § 211 was not clear about the federal preemption of state jurisdiction, so Congress made preemption absolutely clear by amending § 211 in 1988, thereby superseded Rose.

Veteran Benefits have ALWAYS been provided by Congress directly to veterans, their dependents and survivors, but have NEVER been paid to or through the states. These benefits have ALWAYS been protected from any kind of legal or equitable process by the crystal clear language of the federal law controlling their purpose.

Veteran benefits have ALWAYS been exempt from garnishment under Title IV-D except for a very short time (1977 to 1982) when VA disability compensation benefits could have been garnished if they were received by military retirees instead of retired pay.

That exception became obsolete in 1982 when Congress changed Title 10 to make it clear that states are limited to the strict definition of "disposable retired pay." It became dead-letter in 1988 when Congress changed Title 38 to make it absolutely clear that states have NO possibility of jurisdiction to take money out of veteran benefits for any reason, whether the veteran is a retiree or not.

That dead letter exception became a loophole in 1996 when it was moved from the old 42 U.S.C. § 662 into § 659. It looks like it cancels 38 U.S.C. § 5301, but it has NO effect on the complete preemption expressed in 38 U.S.C. § 511.
