But it wouldn't have been reversed if people voted for Democrats. So you'd get something out of it instead of getting something negative (reversing it and going long ways the other way
Yeah, and maybe people would vote for Democrats if they'd represent our interests. Instead, all we get is "we need something to campaign on next election" until people get fed up and elect Republicans who undo everything the Democrats did and the cycle starts over again.
The system never progresses, the people never learn, and corporate interests reign supreme another election cycle.
As long as we have two parties working together to further corporate interests, nothing will change, which is why we need 5-6 political parties, ranked choice voting, and a constitutional amendment to repeal Citizens United.
