I’ve heard it said that Politics is about making you think you have some control. You don’t. The media, Party leaders and the Powers that Be control the agenda. Average voters are sheep to be manipulated. That’s why we need multiple parties, and encourage open political primaries, and eliminate the current ability for the few to control the duopoly.

In Soviet Union they had one Party and had a dictatorship. Two Parties doesn’t necessarily give freedom to the people.

***In Soviet Union they had one Party***

Does anyone truly believe we still have a Two-Party system?

One party = dictatorship.
Two parties = dichotomy.
3+ parties = minority rule.

Pick your poison.
