The two party system no longer works

Nothing has changed.

In some ways the two party system has served us well.

Iin many ways the two party system never worked.

The people have never been willing to vote in sufficient numbers for a third party.

The Democrats had a chance till Meg committed suicide for them.

We do not have a viable third party on the horizon.

THe greens will not fill this void, while they have great value they are hated by most conservatives and seen to far too many as a one policy area group.

You can not gain sufficient numbers without having support accross the middle ground and the greens will never attract the conservative portion in this area.

I hope that I am wrong but doubt it very much.

so in essence you are saying that there will probably never be a third real party because voters dont want one? Is that not the very ESSENCE of democracy , where the people choose their representatives?

So then you do agree our system is not democratic considering that we do not choose who controls the financial system

democracy is about GOVERNMENT you twit. government is NOT about controlling every aspect of society - unless you are a socialist/communist or fool. 2 out of 3 for you?
