That's good, lol, I'm stealing it.  I agree with you, btw, that they're engaged in a low level hybrid conflict with each other, trying to keep it from spilling out into the streets before they can consolidate their fiefdoms.  A strong central government might be able to stop that, were it so inclined - and chopping it into even smaller warring parts would be an impediment in that hypothetical.

The bad actors will not be able to run the same play, and a modern, sophisticated series of constitutional conventions will prevent any other possible general partisan corruption because of the unique formulations of four legislative assemblies will break the general parties into at least four factions that can be better critiqued. Plus the modern system of security will prevent what we have from the slow erosion of "honest politics" that we have from the evolution of the existing system. Except for the Demarcation of Law theory, the system we have now has basically revealed the pieces of the self-governing puzzle that the founders did not have. They started off with building only three security departments and the judiciary. 

Deployment of the Demarcation of Law Theory is not as difficult to deliberate now as it would have been in the past. The Founders were hurried with not much more than the new and untested Three-part Separation Theory. They had limited professional manpower and medieval publishing technology. Today, not only do we have a more sophisticated separation theory to deliberate, but we also have a list of security departments that are accurately commissioned by sections of the law that would have been very helpful to the Founders. We have access to a robust community of scholars and practical experts with chalk boards, computers, smart phones, easy-to-use printers, and reams of paper. We are unhurried and can take the time to imagine, calculate, compose, deliberate, litigate, rewrite, and publish, hyperlinked hierarchy listings of directive systems for ordering all of the possible options for organizing the judiciary, legislative assemblies, executive administration offices, security departments, and promulgated laws, into an aligned system that will have qualities consistent with scientific reliability and engineered calibration.

If American society were just and tranquil, as the Preamble commissions the American Experiment, then we would be correct to credit the organization of the government for delivering. But because the government seems to be too big to fail, and a more reliable government separation model has not yet been revealed, it is easier to blame the politicians who are tasked with working in the erroneous system, than trying to design and deliberate a more practical system. Contemporary Americans are naïve witnesses and unwitting victims to the adverse aspects of the inadequacies of the experimental three-branch government.

Why not? Why couldn't our owners buy six partitions and four parties the same way they've bought three and two?

I cannot predict beyond the outlook of a more complex fractioning of a graduated four-assembly legislature, any more than I can assume that you are correct in your description of "our owners buying" the subsisting party system. That is, if you are correctly diagnosing the problem, then why don't you devise the correct adjustment that most people will agree is the best? Quit jerking off.

The correct adjustment has already been devised: direct democracy with universal suffrage.

I guess that ends our discussion, then. Your commitment to rudeness makes it clear that this won't be a productive interchange.

Ah, I see, we've got one of those jackasses who hasn't thought their pet idea through and can't answer the most basic questions about it.  As though the cracking and packing of power centers hasn't been tried six ways to sunday, most notably in context by the very ruling classes we're supposed to be outmaneuvering through the harebrained complication of bureaucracy.

You have to possess some modicum of intelligence in order to truly desire intelligent discourse. I see no signs from this loon.
