27. We do not live in a DEMOCRACY.
We live in a Federal REPUBLIC. England and Canada are PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACIES. That's why more than 2 parties flourish there.

if we had 12 parties and the rePUKES got 25% and the next party 24.5% THE REPUKES STILL WOULD CHAIR THE COMMITTEES.

We live in a 2 PARTY, REPRESENTATIVE FEDERAL REPUBLIC, not a democracy. Your vote only really counts in a BLOC. Otherwise, you and yours are shit outa luck.

No offense, but this shit is Civics 101.
