We all know that politics can be toxic and often things don't get done. There are risks when solving problems is difficult, slow, or misaligned. Thus, there may be opportunities to improve our current political structure by encouraging a third party of objective neutral voters. We may further discuss how proceeding generations define the cultures and processes of such systems. Stickiness in political decision making creates risks and may not fully meet the needs of the next generation. Thus, providing an avenue for the youth to express their hopes for improvement filtered through a lens of science and an objective critical thinking can help tie them to contribute to national develop in a way that is uniquely theirs for their struggles.

Political stagnation leaves the system unable to improve or adapt even though though solutions could create win-win outcomes for both political parties and all parties involved. The example Feather Party seeks to reverse the trend by bringing forward new perspectives based in critical thinking and logic. A Little Critical
Opportunities For Politicians to Vote Objectively:
The process of improvement, providing solutions based in science, and offering opportunities to vote for such improvements is important for the health of the entire nation and its stakeholders.
