“However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.” - George Washington
Should have diluted the influence of political parties by getting rid of First-past-the-post voting and making 3rd parties viable without a spoiler effect.
Dont worry blue conservatives, you’ve will get the opportunity to earn your incremental change. When we become a one party state, you can still compete in Republican primaries! Shouldn’t be a problem right?
