No, it's not. It's a story of spirit, love, hope - most babies are born in this womb.

A womb with a view!

orthdoxymoron - I came across an economist/ author via this article: "Jesus on Property Rights and Resource Preservation," (Robert Higgs). His most recent book has an interesting title, too.



# Against Leviathan: Government Power and a Free Society (2004)
# Resurgence of the Warfare State: The Crisis Since 9/11 (2005)
# Depression, War and Cold War: Studies in Political Economy (2006)
# Politická ekonomie strachu ("The Political Economy of Fear") (Czech language; 2006)
# Neither Liberty Nor Safety: Fear, Ideology, and the Growth of Government (2007)

Higgs's 10 September 2008 article, "Ticking Time Bomb Explodes, Public Is Shocked," stated that

"[t]he failure of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, setting in motion the biggest government bailout/takeover in U.S. history, brings a grim sense of fulfillment to competent economists.... Our political economy is rife with such catastrophes in waiting, yet the public always seems startled, and outraged, when the day of reckoning can no longer be deferred, and another apartment collapses in the state’s Hotel of Impossible Promises, loading onto the taxpayers more visibly the burden of sheltering the previous occupants.... Call it democracy in action or utterly corrupt governance; they are the same thing."
