Ouch! Stephen, a single political party? How can you even think that? This is such a tremendously painful answer, I have no idea how your brain is functioning.
How can you desire a good outcome for everyone and hand the responsibility of all that into the hands of one party?
Are you religious and want God to be personified in one single party?
Don't you know that in order for those in power to do their work well, there has to be a forging process to end up with the best possible answers?
Power is the part we need to conquer. Power is the essence of the decision making process.
How on Earth can we have one party be involved in a forging process that leads to all the desired societal outcomes?

As I see it, there are two options only to accommodate a good forging process.
1/ There must be nations with full representation around the table, empowering all voters in a nation equally.
2/ Because the largest nations cannot be based on twenty parties (they break apart if there are too many parties), they need to have a comprehensive full-representation process that limits the number of parties to somewhere between 4 to 7, and no more. The limited number of parties enables stability.
Otherwise, with one, two or three parties, the forging process cannot deliver good outcomes.
A color copier has red, blue, yellow, and black ink. That’s all to create all colorful outcomes. We need no more than four distinct parties to get all the outcomes we desire.
Example: Germany. It got the USA voting system in place, but they fixed it up so proportionality is somewhat included. They have had between 4 and 7 parties, and while still part of the global community (i.e. being pulled down toward competition that benefits the elite), Germany is a social democratic nation with decent benefits for everyone.
Smaller nations, such as the Scandinavian countries, can have their full representation, and indeed they deliver the best results for their own population, on par with none in the world. They simply are the best (not perfect, mind you, they are still part of the bigger world). Important to know is that these nations have just one House only. There is no president, there is no Senate. Just one House, and these voters are therefore the most empowered people in the world. As we know, also the happiest people in the world.
Stephen,
I have to recover from your reply. I simply cannot believe that your brain went into a external field of power, created a singularity (always a fantasy position) for that power, and considered that a good solution. That is creating Frankenstein, you know that, don't you. Using all different parts and then coming to a single entity, a monster is the outcome, no matter all good intentions.
