How can a government with party associations ever effectively represent the people it's designed to serve?
Q. Truly, whether 2 parties or 10, how can a goverment work effectively for it's people when elected officials vote with their party? My question is why should parties or any such associations among elected officials not be abolished? Thinking more on this, when I go to the voting booth, I vote in private. There was a big Union issue which surfaced last week about secret voting. There's no peer pressure.

A. Many other types of government can be found, all over the world. With which would you suggest we replace our Republic? Or, do you even have an idea for a new and different one? This is a very good question, and it's very easy to agree with abolishing parties, but many alternatives I could suggest would be even worse. Obviously, the party-in-power is there because it represents the majority. I'd like to see more "watch-dogs", more regulations for the untrustworthy, more emphasis on Civics in school, and more mature decisions than the ones that created this economic crisis. Hopefully, this President will right many wrongs!

anyone know how to find out about homeowners associations before you move?
Q. I am looking to move to a condo or a townhome from a regular house with no association. How does a person check on the associations only if they are still shopping for a condo or townhome?

A. Ask your Realtor. If there happens to be onsite management or a contact info you could ask in the community itslef, they can provide you with a copy of the documents. Do make sure you really know what you are getting into. There can be benefits, but the hazards of having a bad HOA are also great. These groups can be very powerful and can be dominated by some irrational people with no other job than to make residents lives miserable. Not saying that one should avoid them in all cases, just be informed and very cautious.
