Churches do a bunch of that. Problem with that in Georgia: Many of the religious nuts are poor because they are waiting for God to send them a winning Lotto ticket.
The poorer you are, the more devout you are. Religion is rather codependent. I think that's why churches do so much missionary work in really poor countries. It allows rednecks to be wealthy by comparison.
