While it's not only you, it is a very small number of very vocal, very politically involved people who care much about that.

I'm neither of those things. I just wanted for once in my life to see the ruling class do something simple, obvious, and right. In fact, it's so simple, obvious, and right, that it boggles my mind that it didn't happen.

I've been disillusioned to varying degrees by political machinations over the last 50 years, but failure to act on this makes me feel like just giving up on the whole system. I've never been overly cynical, but now it seems that's all I have left.

I have no idea how difficult it is to run a country and no idea how the government deals with all the complexity and uncertainty. Choosing a voting system is one of the very few things I feel I am able to get my head around. It is so patently obvious that everyone involved deliberately chose to not do the right thing, even though it was simple and obvious.

Okay, sorry for the rant.
