I disagree. A multi-party system exacerbates the problem I'm talking about (lack of long term thinking). If we get government that swings back and forth between multiple parties with vastly different visions for the country every cycle, that seems much worse than swings between two parties that are fairly aligned at their cores.
- TaylorAlexander 7y agoJust trying to understand: does your comment assume full power swinging between many parties? What about distributed power proportional to party representation?
- arnarbi 7y agoCoalition governments are often very stable across many election cycles. There’s rarely one single party entirely in charge.
- wtcac 7y agoLooking at the European panorama. That highly depends on the country. Multi partidary systems are the norm everywhere in here, but only in some countries there is a stable coalition culture. Recently Spain and Belgium spent years without a propy government because of that.
