Actually Richard, it's even more obvious than this.

One of the women I helped moved to Aurora.  She was shocked at the living=

You will also find, if you look carefully, that 80% of all DYFSS workers=20
were volunteers at a Religious Organization of some sort.  The Catholics=20
and Fundamentalists are major sources of trained Social Services workers.

The primary source of private adoptions is through religeous=20
institutions.  In addition, religious institutions provide the most=20
effective resource for coordinating aid programs.  Some organizations=20
actually have full time and volunteer workers who specialize in getting=20
and coordinating aid programs for unwed and abandoned mothers.  The=20
mothers then tithe 10% of the net value of their Aid package.

The "non-profit", directors, especially leaders of religious=20
organizations are also directors of the Private adoption agencies,=20
provide leads only to "Christian Lawyers", and only reccomend christian=20
parents.  In other words, if you are white, and you want a white baby,=20
you MUST join, and tithe to, the church that "Sponsors" the adoption=20
agency.  In addition, the going rate is now about $75,000 split equally=20
between the lawyers (who tithe), and the Adoption Agency.  There is also=20
a $10,000 to $24,000 "investigation fee" which is split between the=20
investigator and her supervisor.  The primary resource of investigation=20
is the reccomendation of the church leader for the adoptive parents, and=20
the reccomendation against the mother.  The mother's lawyer paints as=20

the social worker.

It's even simpler than that.  Look for the religeous affiliation in the=20
previous experience of most social workers.  Notice an abundance of=20
Catholics, Southern Babtists, Assembly of God, and other very=20
conservative religions.  This is not a coincidence.

Of course, an adoption to a couple with a $100,000 income will tithe=20
$10,000/year for 25 years minimum.  Most will tithe for another 30 years=20
to get tax free benefits for their grandchildren (Church Sponsored Schools)=

This Republican Sweep is primarily a backlash reaction against the=20
repeated restrictions of these "sweetheart deals".

At some point, look into Calvery Temple in Denver Colorado, and the Life=20

and the SEC found it interesting that an Church will soliciting=20
"Investors" in a "Non-Profit Organization".  They even had a prospectus=20

Your tax dollars support these institutions.  You pay for their firemen,=20
their police protection (even special patrols on sunday morning), and=20
their infrastucture services (roads, sewer, water...).

By the way, my father was the accountant for the church I attended as a=20
child.  I learned how to read some very "interesting" budgets.  The=20
amazing thing was that it was possible to embezzle $10,000/year in such a=

way that even the auditors couldn't find it.  They settled for $7,000=20
lump sum.
