While this story is old, it still might inspire some Freepers. I thought I'd share it as an enjoyable story for weekend reading/pondering. I don't know about you, but stories about hardworking and generous Americans never ever get old to me.

Here's a follow-up article about Ms. McCarty going to D.C. to see Slick Willy: http://www.usm.edu/pr/oolawash.htm

I have a graduate degree from Southern Miss and knew about the story. It still caused my eyes to mist up reading it again.

Thank you, ma'am. My daughter is in grad school there at this very moment. In some way, even if indirectly, you helped.

Thank you. May God multiply your blessings.

Sorry, Ms. McCarty, but decades of the welfare state have demonstrated that people value things at exactly what it costs them.

If it costs them nothing, they think of it as nothing.

A shame that you haven't figured that out by now.
