CMV: Competition is considered good for consumers, yet American’s regard the 2 party system to be the most effective way of representing their people (the most diverse country in the world).. simply adding another party (or multiple) is the best way to bring about the change America ACTUALLY needs

During such a crazy time in the country, people political views only grow stronger. The constant fear mongering and finger pointing from both sides, and the respective (Agenda driven) news media outlets that cover them cause people to believe that what’s needed is just more control and power given to THEIR party.

It’s mind boggling to believe that this country is as educated as it’s ever been, yet cannot see the forest for the trees. 

People are losing face in the American political system. A system that was revolutionary at its time, with a structure that still stands true to what made it great. 

GOP wants to “drain the swamp” of the crooked politicians.

Democratic Party wants a larger Fed government to fund more of “the change that’s needed”

— if you want to do both, start voting for third parties. Realize that when neither of these two parties doesn’t have only one party to compete with, only the most important policies/beliefs their respective party by the people they represent (you) can be prioritized in Congress.

- the “lies” both parties claim are being told by their competitor will no longer be impossible to know the truth of because there’s another party(ies) there to keep their claims in check.

- the list could go on infinitely, but the gist of it is is that both parties are hypocrites that believe in more competition.. only not in their political system because it means less control and less power for them 

TL;DR: Competition isn’t just good in business, it’s good in politics. Your views and representation will not go away, in fact, they would be forced to be put on the forefront of your parties political agenda since they cannot hold such an unhealthy strong opinion on an endless list of things and rely on the fact there’s a chance they may have control over a branch of government next cycle simply because they’re only competing against one other party.

E: If you walked away from this feeling like I did, research the topic more. Many people share their opinions on social media now a days.. if you believe in what was said and want to see less hostility (from both sides) share your opinions to others.

Most americans don't think a 2 party system is the most effective way to represent their people.

The 2-party system is not a result of the will of the people, it's the result of a system that was NEVER revolutionnary, that the founding father just copied from the British system despite the fact that it obviously leads to a two-party system, something they didn't want. They really shat the bed there.

And that "both sides" bullshit is completely stupid and doesn't hold under examination for one second. Trump's GOP literally just attempted a coup as the culmination of 4 years of nepotism and corruption, if you did the least bit if research on the subject you'd know that the GOP does not really intend to drain the swamp or fight corruption in any way.


The 2 party system is indeed terrible, but not for any of the reasons you listed.
