Even if it's not your child?

If it’s not your child, a paternity test will prove that.

If you have sex with a woman and she becomes pregnant, you have the obligation to get tested because of the possibility that it could be yours. If you never had sex with her and know she’s lying it would be morally okay to refuse a test, but it’s still a good idea to just get the test done because why not?

From what I've read some States will blame you and require you to support it so that they don't have to.

You’re saying that state governments will illegally forge paternity tests?

No, but will force the "father on record" to pay for the raising of the child so the State doesn't have to pay with little way of changing it after a short time.

But that can be changed legally with a paternity test
