i'm not sure america needs a third party. if the green party, for example, became a legitimate contender, then if they ever got power they would spend more resources on the environment, ignoring many other factors, just like republicans ignore everything but corporations/the wealthy and democrats ignore everything but social issues/middle class. we need a party that is strong in each area, and divides up resources in the best way. but no one knows how to do this, so each party that gets power uses it to its preferences.
humans get drunk off power. to be a controlling party is to have more power than others. a party in power will first look to its own concerns. no one will ever be happy. i wont say that the 2 party system now is great, but more parties arent the answer either
maybe we need just one party, then we would not have to worry about all this nonsense.
