12. 2-Party system.......
Wed May 5, 2021, 03:50 PM
May 2021

One hears stories about how much better off the US would be if it wasn't locked in to the 2-party system.
And then you see how others deal with the "deals" that need to be made to form their own 'majority.'

I don't know how one can keep up with all of the 'deals' being made and how they would impact every single bill going into the legislative system. It seems to me that it would create a "Manchin-on-Steroids!"
