New Democratic Party

The NDP has some great policies. And they've had great policies ever since the party was created. So why haven't they won? Why now are they behind the CPC in the polls? I feel the following is the issue:

1.) Right wingers are more team oriented to their political party (IE, the CPC)

I think those who believe in a more individualistic society with less interventionist government are (ironically) more able to collectively get behind their team and donate and volunteer than are those on the left.

So even if the CPC does not exactly mirror an individual right-winger's vision of what they want, they will put that aside and still get behind their team. Thus, donations and volunteering are higher. And this gives the right a huge advantage. It's resulted in society incrementally moving right over the past forty years.

2.) Left wingers are less team oriented

By contrast, left wingers, who believe society should be a more community based collective endeavour rather than a non-interventionist individualistic endeavour, (ironically) sit back as individual arm-chair critics deriding their own team. They treat it as a product outside of themselves that needs a better shine to sell, rather than as a team-based movement toward a more just society. Thus, donations and support are low.

Until left wing people can get over that and instead support their team, there's little hope of success. So, start by joining the NDP and supporting them. That's the ticket forward.
