However if you do away with parties, you are not that far removed from China's one party system. Which isn't heralded as a utopian government by any stretch.
- drharris 14y agoThe problem is not that there shouldn't be parties, but rather there should be LOTS of parties, all with an equal say and equal potential to gain office. Power brokering should happen not by party, but by the issues. There should be no majority whip or minority whip. If you need an example of how extreme the parties power goes, try to remember who was NOT invited to any of the presidential debates. (Hint: there were more than two presidential candidates)
