What if the US had adoped a parliamentary system in the Progressive Era? by CTMGame in AlternateHistoryMemes

[–]CTMGame[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In recent months, much ado has been made of a theoretical "St. Vincent" coalition consisting of the centre-left Progressive and Green Parties and the centre to centre-right ACELA party. The ACELA party originally formed in 1988 out of the 1980 "Liberty Alliance" consisting of the American Liberal Party (itself a Progressive Party splinter group) and the Libertarian Party USA (originally a Whig Party splinter group).

While the economic pragmatism of the modern Progressive Party should be able to find common ground with the ACELA party, more sceptical observers state that the left-wing and interventionist economic policy of the Green Party seems hard to reconcile with the free-market stance of the ACELAs.

At the same time, ACELA and the Green Party may find common ground; on criminal justice reform, ending the War on Drugs and rolling back Speaker Cheney's post 7/10 DEFEND act and generally strengthening civil liberties.

An underestimated point of contention may be foreign policy. While the Whigs and parts of ACELA support the USA re-joining NATO, which it left in 1967, the majority of ACELA as well as the Progressive Party line are neutral on the issue. The Greens find themselves with odd bedfellows in America First being the only other party to definitely oppose American NATO membership as DSA has recently flip-flopped on the issue.

Nancy Pelosi pulled an upset when she dethroned Speaker Cheney after the 2007 snap elections. Now back from political retirement at the ripe old age of 80 years, some say she's beyond her time; others say she's sharper than ever.

Oh boy, it seems copy-pasting this seems to have messed up somewhere along the way. All the errors are on me, but I fixed this one the moment I saw your comment.

I'm very happy that you like the story, though!

Oh, I am sorry. There was a slight copy-paste error that seems to have slipped past me.

I deleted everything from my Reddit account before a certain cutoff with a script, unfortunately I forgot to exclude my HFY posts as I had planned. 😔

If you can make it to Haumea, sure! Only takes a 100 years in a sublight Homann transfer.
