>Do you propose that alimony/child support should be waived if ex-wife makes more money than husband?
AIUI (and fortunately, I've never been through this personally), child support is from the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent, regardless of sex. This seems appropriate to me.
As for alimony, I think if one of the couple has devoted considerable time to homemaking to the detriment of career, that person is entitled to payment for some period of time. If both worked full-time and neither passed up career advancement or education to "work for" the marriage, no alimony is needed.
