This might sound bad, but is it too much to ask the people in Africa to not overpopulate to get to the point where they have those problems? I guess you'd have to put a limit on children per family or something like that to really enforce that, which is tough to do. It applies to the US too though. How long can some welfare families continue to have more kids when they can't support them? People should not be having children without the means to support those children on their own. Another tax credit is not a good reason to have another child. I just don't have much sympathy for people that put themselves into a situation that they know going in (or should anyway) that they can't handle, and yet they do it anyway and then want help from the govt.
