Third parties would be corrupted as well

And it still amazes me that people remain so tightly affiliated with the main parties. Especially in here. Do they not know that they are being lied to by both? How could you possibly throw your support to someone who knowingly deceives you?

It seems a lot of people think a third party would be somehow purer and avoid all the negativity of the two party system. I think they too would become corrupted in the exact same way. In order to generate enough votes they too would begin to waffle on issues and provide innocuous sound bites. Needing money they would cozy up to corporations and individuals.

The fact that I see politics as an exercise of power and not a pursuit of truth makes this a non-issue for me.
