Actually why the fuck is that? Like how can someone owe someone else money because of a divorce, seems ridiculous.  Like "hey i dont want to be involved with you anymore" "well, the government says you have to pay me, for the rest of your life, so good luck with that 💅"

Because marriage is a partnership you both work towards a goal and when things don't work out one person shouldn't be left completely out in the wind. FWIW a lot of the punitive family laws are the result of the government not wanting to take accountability for people. If we had better social programs in my country (the US) we probably wouldn't have laws where people pay large amounts in child support and alimony to hopefully stop people from seeking government benefits
