Partisanship

Before I continue I would desire to reassert that this house believes that a two- society carcass is preferable to a multi fellowship system. Partisanship is a problem that has plagued the States for centuries. In in the buff decades the issue has r distributively compensate to a greater extent severe with the American concourse witnessing the first regime shut tear down in the nations history in 1981. A government shutdown is the result of the failure of carnal knowledge to pass a compute for the new fiscal year and results in the halt of roughly federal services.The shutdown in 1981 occurred because the chairman of the time Ronald Reagan vetoed a budget that had been passed by the Democratic majority in congress. In 2013 the government to the full shut down for over two weeks the result of the partisan look at over Obama care. In recent years the problem of a government shutdown has become increasingly prevalent as the sectarianism within the essential political ins titutions such as the United States congress become point more extreme. This year the government has already shut down twice. A clear sign of the danger that the irrational level of partisanship within the United States government poses to its citizens.Beyond government shutdowns partisanship drastically affects many other aspects of government. Recently the confirmation hearing for Supreme beg nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh has showcased the intensity of the sectarianism in the United States today. The hearing, which should hand served to validate or invalidate the claims made against Kavanaugh, was instead used by members of both the Democratic and Republican Parties to point fingers at one another(prenominal) in mock outrage.This is scarce one example of how sectarianism has often prevented the United States equitymakers from properly doing their job, causing laws that benefit many Americans to fail. Laws such as the DISCLOSE Act, which would have forced companies to disclo se their political spending, would have helped to tick off transparency in government-private business relations, is only example of a law that was killed by sectarianism.There are countless other examples of laws stopped by nothing but partisan hatred such as the payroll check Fairness Act, which would have ensured equal pay for men and women doing the same jobs. In other words, for no reason then hatred of the basic political orientation of another party dozens of men and women in the United States congress have chosen to vote against bills that would serve to make America an even greater country. All that has been accomplished in this countrys recent years fast economic recovery and growth from the 2008 crash, government subsidized health insurance, and the legitimation of gay marriage, has happened despite, not because of the partisanship within our government.Furthermore the sectarianism outside of the United States government negatively impacts the people of the United St ates. Far likewise often people are unable to agree with or even recognize perfectly reasonable claims or ideas simply because they are presented by a person who does not divide the same political draw as them. This leads to discordance and dissatisfaction among the American public, as well as most populations around the world, as people who do not share opinions constantly fight and bicker failing to see things that are legitimately important.to boot partisanship leads to extremism such as that propagated by groups such as ISIS or the KKK, due to people forcing the opinions of their party on those who do not share those opinions or violently attacking those who refuse to change their minds. It is clear that with only two parties in America the sectarianism in the country is already stretching the country to the breaking point. With only two parties Americas governmental institutions fight to pass the bare minimum of laws to keep the government running.Ultimately, the addition of new parties to a two party would only add to the strain mat up be the American government and others like. More parties would mean more sides, each with their own separate agenda, attempting to force laws through a legislative wooden leg filled with people that oppose them.As no one party would have the majority in a true multi-party system it would be next to impossible for any law to gather enough nurture to pass through congress let alone the desk of a president who, in all likelihood would be of a different party affiliation than the people trying to pass the laws. The sectarianism seen among the public of America and other countries today would increase as well, the result of even more separate political affiliations, causing further social unrest.The famous saying, coupled we stand divided we fall, is true. A multi-party system will divide a countrys citizens, causing discordance and the eventual failure of its government, while two or fewer parties will unite the country , allowing it to continue unimpeded and grow stronger. From the arguments that the members of my team up and I have made, it is clear that a two party system is far preferable to a multi-party system. We affirm the resolution and strongly hike an affirmative ballot.
