We still need more political parties though. Of course I would align myself with Erickson’s idea of a “third party”. Won’t even bother reading or listening to him.

In Canada we have multiple parties and coalition governments, but it doesn’t work as well as it should with first past the post voting systems.
Something like a single transferable vote system is in my opinion democratically vastly superior. I hope we see a movement towards that kind of system internationally over the next few decades. Our system right now completely crushes dissenting or fringe views.
