Proportional voting is just a way to encourage voter participation. As I say, if voting was compulsory you wouldn't need all that. America is screwed up because so few of its people actually matters.
In Australia I was unhappy with the outcome of the Federal Election. But at least I know it was fair because the people made their choice. I believe my countrymen made a big mistake, but it is their choice to do so and I can't stop them.
