How about P.R. in the U.S.A. ???
See the marching in the streets by the usual suspect special interest gangs in WI State on the news today.
Econ WAR — between NET tax payers versus NET tax getters — 6000 plus years and counting.

FairVote’s planning to push hard this year for more use of proportional Representation in the US.
