    Then tell everyone that this is what we have to offer to people if they choose to participate in what made our country great.
    That raises an interesting point: whatever happened to Habitat for Humanity? Do they not go into Appalachia? I think you're onto something, RICHARD.

    HFH demands that the owner put in what is called "sweat equity"-In other words, they have to do a percentage of the work to qualify for a HFH home and the loan.

    Someone will correct me.
