    What can you realistically do to stop the formation of parties without trampling on other rights? Cooperation and organization are effective means of gaining power so parties were always going to form.

    Reforming campaign finance rules and abandoning first-past-the-post voting is more a long the lines of what I would do to make elections more democratic, rather than try to ban parties.

      Yeah I agree with this. There are always going to be parties, as long as different classes in society have different interests. Better to make them more representative than try to do away with them.
