I disagree. A multi-party system exacerbates the problem I'm talking about (lack of long term thinking). If we get government that swings back and forth between multiple parties with vastly different visions for the country every cycle, that seems much worse than swings between two parties that are fairly aligned at their cores.



Coalition governments are often very stable across many election cycles. There’s rarely one single party entirely in charge.


Just trying to understand: does your comment assume full power swinging between many parties? What about distributed power proportional to party representation?
