STOP WITH THIS PR NONSENSE THIS IS NOT EUROPE AND I AM NOT GOING TO GO VOTE FOR SOME STUPID ELECTORAL LIST OR GIVE SOME NONENTITY A PERFERENCE NO PR NO PR NO PR FPTP 4 LYFE.

Seriously, PR wouldn't change anything. We live in a two party system. Deal with it. For all this talk about "social engineering" you people seem to be trying to stuff extra parties- and the ones we have are uniformly terrible- down our throats.

Also, Bandit's proposals do nigh anything to fix the problem. When was the last time the election was thrown to the house? Have nonpartisan proportioning, abolish the filibuster, and go home.

For a proud capitalist like you, I'm surprised you don't seem to believe that adding competition increases the quality of supply.

Yes, but when the consumers have to bear the costs of competition...
