No, you're the one being philosophical.  And you were correct in your first sentence, the collective decides what is wrong.  All of them, not just the few that think they're better than the rest.  In fact take any group of people and they'll always think they're better than the rest.  So you can't pick any group and say they're correct.  You must allow everyone an equal vote.

If most people want to be nuts, then nuts should be the rule.

We need lots of change.  There are so many things wrong with the government (in the UK and the US).

And that's another thing, you get people "tactically voting".  There may be for sake of example 100,000 people in a voting area.  The last election saw 50,000 Conservative, 40,000 Labour, and 10,000 Green.  So this time nobody votes Green because they won't get in.  Of course they won't get in, because the 50,000 tactical voters who could have voted Green didn't!  There was some kind of plan to stop tactical voting by having TWO votes.  In the first one you vote for who you really want, then we all get to see the numbers, and can change or minds to pick one that will be more likely to get in.

We keep trying to, but the problem is the party in power got in through the seats system and won't change it because it'll ruin their chances of getting in next time.

I doubt it, they're just geographical areas, and in fact the party in power is allowed to move the borders to suit themselves!

Your system of State laws and Federal laws would confuse the hell out of me.  You can be doing something legal, drive 2 miles, then be breaking the law.  Or you could be breaking a Federal law but not a State one etc.

I think the US system requires lots more money to stand for election.

That coalition was a bloody stupid idea.  The Liberals are left wing and the Conservatives are right wing.  The Liberals didn't have much influence on the Conservative Government, they just shot themselves in the foot and helped them to get in.  Needless to say nobody votes Liberal any more.

We used to have a party called Whigs, they were the predecessors of the Conservatives.  Before I was born though.  Wikipedia has an article on it somewhere.

Well if most Americans want to, then you should.  But most UK citizens don't want to spend all that money doing it.  We're a smaller country remember, it hits our economy worse to bomb the same amount.

But since there are so many of them, the biasses will average out.
