Reforming the Australian election system

I think it is time to consider reforms of the election system to do away with preference allocation and simply accept the election of the most votes.

Smaller parties will not be funded by the same degree by larger parties by taxpayers to avoid excessive fragmentation.

Minority government has to work hard to win both the voters as well as the minority parties for policy and governance.

In that way, the responsibility is clear.

If minority government can't pass legislations, then it is business as usual to continue, as opposed to distorted policies.
