No, the father must support his previous child. You knew this when you had a new child with him.
If new observations are discovered that clash with the previous theory, then the theory will have to be revised.
You can find sample letters to modify child support on legal websites, family law websites, or by consulting with a family law attorney. These letters should include information such as the reasons for the modification, any relevant changes in circumstances, and a request for a modification of the child support order.
No, but some states are considering including 20% of the income of a new spouse or S/O in calculations to offset the number of motions to modify child support by fathers being laid off their jobs. see related question
Neither state currently has that provision, as California does, this does not preclude a legislative change in the future to address the number of motions to modify support for fathers being laid off. Massachusetts addressed it by doubling their rates two years ago. An argument for this can be presented to the court under a rebuttable presumption, but that can be a two way street, resulting in a lower and not higher payment. see links
Revenue does not modify child support obligations. You need to file a motion/petition in the venue that issued the order for support.
petition to modify means you are asking the court to change a previous order, this way you can increase or lower child support, increase or lower visitation and contact, change the hours of visitation, move from state to state, or change anything previousy ordered by the court. If you need something that the court never ordered, something new, you file an original petition: to establish child support, to establish parental rights, to establish visitation and contact, to in essence, give you something you didnt have before.
Modify what? Custody? Child support? Both? Procedure to file? Procedure to answer? State or country where such an action is occurring or will occur?

Motion to modify current and future child support. Make request to child support enforcement.
You can not modify your child support. Only the court can modify your child support. It is possible the court will do that. It is unusual for your wife to get half your salary. In setting child support, this is a deductible item in all states, that should have been taken into consideration. If not, you can request a modification. see links below
