    I don’t believe it does, but I was tought in school in the 70’s, that the reason USA was an imperfect 2 party democracy, was to create a “strong and efficient” government.
    Don’t the Britts have some of the same? First by the post is such a moronic thing, that may ensure one side a majority, at the cost of having more parties. I think in the case of both USA and Britain, it’s proven pretty clearly it’s not a good system. Yet it’s maintained, because both the 2 dominant parties, enjoy power from efficiently excluding smaller parties can gain significance.
