3. There is NO continuity to our politics, and the terms that a party is in place is not long enough. How much significant change can occur in 4 or 8 years? We as a society are not thinking long term, and it reflects in our politics. Its like you can start a bunch of new projects to make change, but you get voted out by an impatient society, and you cant finish what you started. Over the years, this causes clutter. I'm speaking in metaphor if you can't tell.
5. All our politics can accomplish is to bicker back and forth about everything, and write new laws to fix problems in the short term. The important things (health, education) get bickered over all the time, and knowone can agree on something and no change occurs.

What about 4.?
