Re: The states need more parties
An apt if somewhat disturbing analogy. Swimming is piss is better than swimming in shit, but it's still far from being a satisfying experience.

You guys haven't really dissuaded me from the appeal of a multiparty system, not even slightly. It's sort of like if I said, "I'd rather be swimming in a public pool than this fecal sewage", and then you tell me, "no you don't want to swim in a public pool, people piss in them".
Which brings me back to my original point. Direct democracy: the rest is just semantics.

I realize the catch 22 I'm in, I wouldn't trust the states' general public opinion on anything. Their opinions are easily bought out by propaganda, maybe I see a U.S. direct democracy as swimming in Coca Cola (I'd still rather swim in piss pools). I'm actually trying to discover what my political stance is now that I've given up hope on anarchy. I think I'm aiming to empower the marginalized intellectual class of non corporate citizens.

It's never a lovely time of year in France.
