Mort: (paraphrased) This is free market conservatism, people can own their own homes.....

WWWWRRRRROOOONNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free market conservatism is being in control of your life and not being a slave to the government! You can choose to own your home, you can choose to be a success, you can choose to be the best! But we won't do it for you, it is up to you..
The alternative is socialistic liberals who's only choice is you can be a politician or you can be a slave to the government deciding everything for you.

The homesteading opportunity that the POTUS proposed is hardly a giveaway program. Enterprise zones are a classic conservative approach to blighted areas. Emphasizing free market entrepeneurship is a conservative approach. That being said, a large federal commitment will be needed to rebuild infrastructure.
