    For better or worse we have a two dominant party system, which totally breaks down when one party decides to go it alone and only advance causes they can win with their votes.

    That is a weak party, so divided internally they don’t dare compromise externally.

    If we don’t have at LEAST two functional parties, it all falls apart.

      That sounds like an utterly stupid system that is fragile and easily manipulated… Go figure it’s ours…

        I’m not arguing with that, but it’s the system we have. We can modify it, improve upon it, or let it completely fall apart and be replaced with One Party Rule.
