i agree too... it's a shame i can't vote and my parents are newly conservatives, but they vote on their own intrests.

i thought up a voting system in canda that would be ideal, and would probably let marijuana be legalized easier.

you vote on which ever party you want... on a sheet, all of them will be there (small parties, big parties, all) you picked the party you wish to be in power, then all the votes will be added (all parties), divide by the number of seats in parlement (i think it's like 250). that number will be divided again by the number of votes each party gets and that number will be the number of seats in parlement they get. (i know most will have decimals and you cant have party members sharing seats, haven't thought to resolve that, but it is a simple issue). next it is up to the parties to fill their own seats, obviously picking the ones that best represent what that party wants (like what you would vote for) so that we get the best politicians from the parties and so that people in rural communities have the chance to vote for parties that would not normally run in their area, like the marijuana party.

any questions? i'll answer them. i feel as if this system is fool proof... so prove me wrong
