I wonder, where he will get the land from? How many native animals will have to die, because they will have to cut down virgin bush. Too many people in this world, that is the problem, stop breeding!!!!!!!!! Instead they keep encouraging mothers to have more babies, they get rewarded with $4000.00 per child, just crazy.

i think it great for once, a country that is going to put the taxes of there middle class, for work for them as its the middle class, that make up the majorty of the taxes, so they are building homes they can afford,m not just for the corparation,that buy up the cheep ;land to exploite the poor they buy large tracks of land that cut the land up so wild animals migration traval is disrupted. leaveing them close to disapearing from our kids futurfe.

Bush would like to do the same thing, while Pharmacists can deny birth control in many US cities, the Family Planning clinics have closed or are too afraid to stay open, because fanatic are allowed to bomb abd threaten them with no consequence, then women have less assistance when they have children they can neither afford or have the jobs to support in a healthy way. What's the world coming to when over population is rewarded and the very Government that is supposed to protect people, Bush not only cut funding for children and women but also vetoed a health care bill for children to get health care when they are poor. However big Corp. greed isn't cut, it seems to be encouraged in fact! People should be rewarded NOT to have children in a crowded world, not have more that they can neither support or educate. The world is too crowded now.
