Hilary Clinton: $5000 for every US baby

Clinton: $5,000 for Every U.S. Baby

My thoughts:
This is a bad idea on soooo many levels.

Just a few points
$5000 doesn't do jack for you if you don't have enough money to raise a baby. Yes this would be money in the form of a bond, but that brings me to my next point...

Where is this money going to come from? Taxes obviously. And who is affected by an increases in taxes the most? The poor. Even if you tax the rich, they are the ones who own businesses, and they will cut wages, cut benefits, and raise prices.
