    The 2 party system forces politicians to do 1 of 2 things:

    1. Lie to and manipulate uneducated voters into thinking they’re the best option.
    2. Only enact middle of the road policies everyone likes to get voters in the middle to swing the vote in their favor.

    Our two party system is too entrenched to ever pass laws to remove itself, thus this will always be how politics works in the US. We should all be focused on some form of multiple choice voting like ranked choice if we ever want something different than the above, but I see no reality where the dems and gop come together and dilute their own power by making this a reality.
