In NZ MMP proportional voting introduced in 1996 has largely made it impossible for a market oriented capitalist party to govern and gradually all the parties have become equalist and redistributive and driven my mass opinion. In the first past the post system before 1996 the third parties, social credit, alliance or greens which got the 25 percent wasted vote usually were voted for my the stupid, uneducated and reactionary. With the STV system used in Wellington city local government the left are even more advantaged because the left has proved much more skilful in arranging their lists and advising their voters and a 25 percent loser on first preference is likely to win over the 35 percent first preference winner.
The election of Thatcher, Reagan, Hawke and Lange in 1980-84; the change of the capitalists and accounting and banking structures in NY, London and Tokyo around 1985 and the end of the old War in 1989-1993 meant everything changed private business made the decisions, sport and entertainment suddenly has ten times more money in 1885 and became much more professional but also less intelligent and more manipulated and high tech defence and tech become much less immediately important to politicians, far fewer voters in the armed forces and related industries All those changes meant politicians were no longer involved in directly running the country and became less able and more selected for conformity than brilliance.
There are many control freak women lawyers, politicians who think they could run the country by their own genius and control and in a way order I suppose was maintained that way in 1999-2008 while Helen Clark ran the country. Muldoon ran the country somewhat less successfully in an earlier era but with that model once Ms Gina Miller left office, the system would collapse, it might take 6 months or 200 years as with the Roman Empire.
