With pr the state are not confused

It is liberating for politicians to know that they have a democratic mandate to act or not to act. With fptp politicians must guess the true intentions of the voting public and they are not sure of what they should be doing and not doing. The government can often do too much not knowing that the public do not require the state to act. If we have proportional representation the public are able to tell the government that in many cases they want the government to do nothing. A problem is that often when there is not a clear instruction from the people politicians will err on the side of doing too much. In general the people want the government to do less which is why it is better to enable them to communicate that fact to the state. Without pr the state must guess how little or how much the public wants them to do... with pr there is no ambiguity.
