Fptp makes it difficult to reduce the size of the state

Under a proportional system people will choose the socialism they want (which of course they have no guarantee of achieving) and reject all other kinds. For success they will require enough other people sharing their desire for their particular socialism. With fptp they must weigh up how much they are prepared to tolerate no socialism (of their preferred kind) against promoting some socialism they do not want... they promote unwanted socialism more than they would otherwise have done given a free choice. People will exclude unwanted socialism if they have the choice. We do not order more than we want at the restaurant.

To enter a race where you have an unfair advantage is disgusting.
