Terrible. Jackson made a lot of money selling conquered land to potential plantation owners and land speculators. This was one of the issues between Davy Crockett and Jackson. Davy Crockett wanted land available to settlers so they could homestead, Jackson wanted to sell it to people building large plantations.
