Wouldn’t it be weird if at least one party didn’t fuck up and get tossed out every time.

Wouldn’t it be great if there were no political parties at all? No jockeying for power, no backroom deals, no “donor dinners”?

The problem is setting up a system where leaders can not be influenced by business and can not stack the deck to have an advantage after they leave office. Both things that no politician would ever implement.

Banning party whips would be a good start

fuck up and get tossed out every time.

It’d be great if the party that fucks up the hardest didn’t over-react to trivial stuff in the hopes of garnering enough hate for the wrong party that idiots will vote out the boneheads and elect the actual criminals.

But here we are, and that’s what’s gonna happen.
