Third parties have never been more than "spoilers" for one of the two major political candidates.

And they never will be. It's just the way our political system is set up. Vote for one of the two major political party candidates, or your vote is wasted. (it has some value as a measure of support for the 3rd party platform, but any poll would be just as valuable)

They say "to change your fortunes, change your thoughts", and they're quite right.

There ARE ways to get out of poverty, but you probably won't learn them from poor relatives or friends, or writing rebel poetry. If they knew how to do it, they'd have done it, right?

It may not seem like getting a better education or training, and eventually getting a better job, is the way to go --

But it is. It takes time, and it takes a lot of work, but that's what it takes. Also, you have to be smart about your money. Watch your finances like a hawk!
