There is often more than meets the eye where politics and money are concerned. Faith-Based Initiatives are no exception. Despite the good intentions of some, faith-based policies did not create new significant programs to help those in need. Instead these initiatives were powerful political symbols used to reshape church/state relationships and distribution of political power.
