1.) As soon as you get (re)elected you have to start working on getting money for your next election, hence people/businesses with money will always have a higher chance of getting time in your schedule. As long as more money equals a higher chance of a position of power in politics it is at a minimum an unfair democracy. No lobbying, no money to politicians outside a fair wage.
2.) A two party system will always end up with candidates most voters "can live with". Everyone else than the biggest candidates are wasted votes. This leads to populism, like how you can be hard on crime/immigration/whatever and the other candidates have to beat you. This leads to laws like "Three strikes and you're out" and candidates like Donald Trump. No more Dem. vs Rep. It fuels hatred / Us vs Them mentality.
