Gigi, EZ has it the right take on my comments. You however still don't "get it"--and even still have the story of my experiences all wrong. My own personal story and experience are not even the point though; the point is that, as I have often attempted to explain to you before, courts outrageously ASSUME that men owe their wives half of everything they have, and this assumption can only be rebutted by proof that any particular dollar, titled exclusively in the man's name, is NOT rightly one-half the property of his wife and to a special, high standard, only seen in criminal cases.
I worked for many years, risking my life and health, to accumulate a few dimes--before I ever met my wife--and for the last ten years or so I have had to grapple with the reality that one-half of these assets belong to her, as with the best of intentions I moved this money numerous times between investments so that, as a result, the strict traceability required by law to prove any seperate property is likely impossible. In addition some records were destroyed in a fire. This schizophrenic woman now has the ability, in all likelihood, to rob me blind any time her "voices" may so instruct her and, given her mental problems, could even be disabled and force me to pay her alimony for the rest of her life (possibly even from my estate after I am dead)!
You know, Gigi, I believe that the only thing which would allow you to understand what I am talking about would be to experience victimization by this kind of stupid law for yourself. Only if someone like you could experience the moment, for yourself, when you suddenly realize that you are already guilty and already legally liable to someone else--even though you know that you are not in fact guilty or liable--could you ever appreciate the acute, exquisite agony resulting from the realization that you are the official and agreed, proper victim and whipping boy, of a self-serving demagogic system. Until that time any additional attempts to explain the injustice of such a system will be wasted on you.
BTW EZ, I have started a number of threads on this subject of property, on this site and others, and they all essentially ran their course after a great many posts. These are the threads in which I previously tried to educate Gigi, but she just can't seem to ever get it. Maybe she needs to feel the cold sting of demagogic and arbitrary law herself by, for example, getting a job as a secretary and having her boss order her to sign the paychecks, subsequent to which the boss leaves town with all of the company's assets, leaving her personally responsible BY LAW for all of the company's debts (this actually happens)!
