If there was a way to reform the electoral vote system and the way the house and senate elections are made in order to be adapted to a 4 party rather than 2 party system, I think the true will of the people will be much more respected

Also, the anti-abortion christians and the trans bathroom activists will have less impact on economic policy.

Technically there are tons of parties. You can't force four of them to be popular. It's a miracle that we even have two that are popular, given that television has spent the last 70 or so years trying to make us all think the same way.

Well, instead of 50% of the country being 100% unhappy, 75% will be 50% unhappy... sounds better, no?

That's only because the way the system is made makes it impossible for a third or fourth party to have a fireball's chance in hell to win

No. Supposing people care about values, 25% will be 100% unhappy while 50% is 50% unhappy, which is no change. But they don't. They care about winning, so 75% will be 100% unhappy.

Why does everything have to be liberal or conservative? What about the moderates?
