But we will know who the big losers are: the voters. Besides, the voters were already the big losers. Of the three groups of voters, the Losing Voters have always been the largest group.

I did this calculation in 2006 for the US Senate, and on average a Senator had won a seat with just shy of 60% of the votes.

So, 30% of the voters got their win with a Republican Senator, 30% of the voters got their win with a Democratic Senator, and 40% of the voters had to go home empty-handed. Clearly, the largest group are the losers.

But we also have a voting system that incorporates Majority Rule twice.

With 60% of the voters getting their pick, and then next the winners among themselves making a majority decision, we see that just 30% of the voters are actually supporting the direction of the nation by the ones they hand-picked themselves.

It is called one round of divide-and-conquer.

The dividing occurs because everyone accepts that it is fine to be divided first, as long as it sounds reasonable. But imagine dividing all voters up based on age, and each age group getting their own rep. Sounds reasonable, right?

Yet that one round of dividing means that voters compete with voters for the win (how stupid is that; they don't do that elsewhere). So, we have Minority Rule in the USA, and we know which minority that is of course: the minority in top positions. Like the Hunger Games, we have twelve tribes competing, and one group leaning backward in their lazy chairs wanting to be entertained.

Follow the Local Revolutions grassroots movement for the much needed change. We are using the US Constitution's single door to get the voting system that is fair to all voters and that does not create an elitist clique of red and blue politicians.
