The Reality of America's One-Party States #shorts

Dan DiSalvo and Andrew Yang discuss the complexities of America's political landscape, and the challenges of establishing a multi-party system in a country dominated by two major parties. DiSalvo highlights the vast differences within state-level political parties, while Yang adds that 75% of Americans live under a trifecta of one-party rule.

The best way to solve this problem is to move to ranked-choice voting systems with Instant-Runoff candidate selection. This is very hard to get done on the federal level, but it is doable for local level elections. After society recognizes the benefits of this on their local level, the method will eventually bubble up to state and hopefully federal someday.

If we had multiple parties, the goal of the wealthy would be to keep rural voters and the wealthy united under the Republicans, and to split the Democrates into at least two parties and possibly three or four: women and environmentalists, and minorities and labor unions. They would create wedge issues like they did to drive rural voters away from the Democrats (immigration, free trade with China and Mexico, abortion, guns, white entitlement). It would not go well.
