Thanks for faving and for giving me your opinion.
At the least the 3rd party should also be running candidates at other levels. A Presidential year is a good year to run for publicity reasons.
3rd parties is can influence policies of the big 2.
A negative is that they are often spoilers. It isn't unusual for a big party to funnel money to 3rd parties, know that have the 3rd party in the race will spoil it for the other party.

I did fly on a Republic Airlines commercial turboprop in 1980. That was noisy.
On my first flight I had no idea what to do. I took the airport limo to LaGuardia and after landing had to figure out how to get to Ann Arbor. Easy to do now, I had never been to an airport before that flight.
My mother in law knew prop planes, she was a stewardess in the early 50s.

I once lived in a condo and was on the board.
When buying a condo you need to establish that it is fully funded. If reserves are not properly funded they you end up with special assessments. A $60,000 special assessment is not normal but that means that condo fees were too low for many years. Some investors love to underfund reserves to keep fees low and then plan on selling before the bill comes due.
I feel bad for the owners and the govt allowed this problem to continue.

same with my son. He is a bit older by the time he was 24 he sold all of her books and movies we owned. He had previously sold all of the Harry Potter Lego sets that that was before we knew she was crazy.

my paternal grandfather’s family thankfully left Lithuania before WWI. The Russian losses in WWI were blamed on the Jews and we are sure his parents died when Jewish Lithuanians were marched to new locations, of course their neighbors got their possessions.
Any time I hear of relocating people I assume for evil purposes and greed.
