There are no votes in proportional representation

The reason fptp is difficult to remove is that only politicians can change it by definition and they are not people who want more democracy. Democracy is bad for the state... it is the means by which the people can veto and reject government proposals. This means that democracy is always a bad thing for politicians and we cannot realistically expect them to be in favour of expanding the franchise. (Enabling more people to vote.) They are not concerned that (under fptp) the state is not fully accountable to the people... because they do not care about accountability. Only if the government cares about a lack of democracy will pr ever replace fptp but the government doesn't care so it will never change.
