America needs a new political party. Both of the current ones are bad. Republicans are way too reactionary, Democrats are pro-censorship, and both are getting more extreme. Neither appropriately represents an average person.

Voting, while an important process, does not solve all problems. Also, senate terms are 6 years! (A senator serves for 8% of your life!) Immediate solutions are often required, as in the U.S. candidates aren’t even expected to stick to their promises. They just don’t have to, here, as even if they get voted out in the next election cycle, corporations will just pay another one to repeat the scam again.

You need the basic accountability aspect that the parliamentary system provides.
