Poll: Are countries with a two-party system better off than countries that have 3 or more main parties?

The reason I ask is because I'm from the Dominican Republic and we are experiencing something that could result in a system similar to the Republican and Democratic two-party system of the United States. We have had 3 main parties for a long time. The PRD, PLD and PRSC. The PRD is a center-left social democratic party, the PLD used to be a center-left party that has gravitated towards a center-right platform in the last decade, and the PRSC is a conservative populist party that is losing a lot of support so now many experts say it will be absorbed by the PLD. I think that the PRSC will disintegrate and we'll be left with 2 parties. Countries with 2 main parties...one center-left and the other center-right tend to be the most stable democracies. The U.S. is a good example of that. So do you think that this is a good thing for the Dominican Republic and its development?

Reply:the more the partys the better for the people.think about a two party means two different views and mainly its hard for voters.one is forced to lose one thing like an issue in taxes for the gain of another like in health care.with three partys who know the other guy might want a change in both the two issues.
Reply:i wish we had a third party here in the usa that would ban taxes an set a national gas price of 12 cents per gallon.
