[quote=Anonymous]Jimmy Swaggart-$10-15 million
Jim Bakker-$500,000
Joel Osteen- $100 million
Ted Haggard- $200,000

From google, these are the estimated worth of the men you listed.

Nancy Pelosi- $120 million

Nancy has been in government her whole life. Has she ever worked a private sector job? She is proud to talk about her Catholic faith.

Pelosi has been in office for 34 years, during which she earned $193,400 per year. That adds up to under $7 million dollars.

Because Congress members are required only to disclose a range of values for their assets and liabilities, the Center for Responsive Politics provides a minimum and a maximum net worth for each member. It calculates an average of those two numbers to determine an estimated net worth. Her maximum net wealth could be as much as about $251 million.

Nancy is not at all atypical. She is a good example of how our elected officials use their elected offices and privately held faith to amass wealth and power, while also claiming to be pious.

Please, cite more examples of politicians who became wealthy via their government jobs. While we provided them a salary, office, a staff, transportation, per diem, etc.
