In reply to the discussion: Conservative activist threatens to steer donors from RNC if GOP raises taxes [View all]Bernardo de La Paz
(48,965 posts)43. Nope. A duopoly is inherently unstable. Like a stool with two legs.
A duopoly is an expression of limited thinking.
A duopoly tends to extreme polarization, like the North / South polarization of the Civil War, and the Bush / Rove 51-49 % strategy.
All of the world's most stable democracies have multi-party systems, except one: the USA. Few if any of them have fought a civil war. The United Kingdom (England) fought its last civil war ending in 1651.
Reject the tyranny of the duopoly.
