FPtT directly leads to a two-party system, and this is not a bad thing.

I see you continue to post bad takes… Just a reminder FPtP voting has been the norm in the USA for its existance… Third parties have managed to become cominated parties 8 times in our history (though not in recent history)

FPtP only gives the illusion of a two party system where support for third parties will be masked with 1% or 2% votes until they get a majority support and then their votes will flip from 1 or 2% one year to 50%+ the next (what has happened in the 8 historic examples).

Why do you open your mouth only to embarrass yourself? Stop it and get help. 
 @90bf4d25

You’re talking to yourself out loud again.

It is a bad thing when both parties only talk the talking points and not solutions. 
 @5661329e 

Yup, a huge problem on both sides right now for sure.
