I have sympathy for this because my particular combination of political preferences does not fit any party. And I am not even in the US where the choice is, let us say, rater one-dimensional. The problem with it is that one might end up with the people voting for, among other things, more generous unemployment benefits, many nice infrastructure projects, lower taxes, and a balanced budget. I guess one could attempt to solve this by putting a price tag on what people vote for as in 'we have this nice project but taxes would increase from this to that amount'. Of course, when actually doing it the project would go over budget and what do you do then?
