I am glad that Ms. Mercer is slowly coming closer to my views on how political parties need to be handled if the human race is to survive.

In Ms. Mercer's words: If anything, antitrust laws ought to be deployed, not against business, but to bust this two-party monopoly, which subverts competition in government and rewards the colluding quislings with sinecures in perpetuity.

Let's all agree that what we need is not MORE parties but ZERO parties. Or we will continue to be betrayed, only by another political party with many of the old con men now performing for a new label.

Since most of us would call ourselves 'people', our political aim is to achieve true PEOPLE representation, not party representation.
