Completely agree with you here. I also want to reinforce your conclusion.

I used to think the two party system was flawed because it is so hard to get anything done. I see now that is a feature and under the current administration we are lucky to be in such a slow moving system.

The solution here truly is in campaign finance and other forms of voting reform such as addressing gerrymandering. If we put the people back in charge of the government I think everything else will fall into place.

My country has 20 parties in Parliament and the sky doesn't fall.

But that would mean an entirely different political culture.

How much is spent on your elections and how are voting districts created and votes counted?
