Now, I thought Democrats were all for complete and total separation of church and state. And here we have the Democrat Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi asking the Church to do her bidding. There must be some explanation for this outrage, but somehow it escapes me.

Watch Pelosi’s comments here:

Among the most egregious recent examples of this is the rhetoric of Nancy Pelosi. To Nancy Pelosi, every government spending results in more jobs and prosperity. Cap and Trade is about “jobs jobs jobs” to her, and the fact that it would bring up the cost of doing business and everything else is of no consequence.

Some government spending for safety and order does facilitate prosperity, but further spending turns the relationship between the size of government and prosperity around, resulting in more government for less prosperity.

The following video from the The Center for Freedom and Prosperity does a great job explaining this and compares economic performance among Denmark, France, Germany, Sweden and the U.S.A.
