in canada, we've actually tended to have a stable four party system, with a fourth party on the far right. for most of the twentieth century, that fourth party was the social credit party, which started off promoting a type of right-wing collectivism but merged into a christian right party and eventually emerged as the neo-liberal reform party. a libertarian party existed in canada as a moderate sized protest party for most of the 80s and 90s, before emerging as the core of the federal green party and shifting first to the centre and then to the left. this historical fourth party was recently reconstructed as the pseudo-libertarian populist party, which is a ragtag collection of nonconformist conservatives with a wide array of wacky positions - something that was also true of social credit, which, amongst other things, got a reputation for associating with neo-nazi groups in quebec.

this fourth party has at times represented upwards of 10% of the population, but it generally only holds a handful of disconnected seats at any given time, often as a result of members of the conventional conservative party leaving or being thrown out for being too extreme. they do not exist in large numbers in any specific place, thankfully. but, they're about as right-wing as you can get.

by siphoning out these voters into a fourth party, their influence is kept out of the mainstream conservative movement. this balance was upset when the reform movement took over the right, but it has since been re-established and we (thankfully) escaped any serious consequence from it. by keeping these voices isolated, their influence is minimized when the conservative faction does take over power. and, their ideas are rarely considered for legislation by the ruling party, so they are generally kept outside of the dialectic.

the fifth faction is the green party, which i want to imagine will evolve into a new left, but is frustrating me so far. with the longterm realities of post-industrialization setting in, the concept of the left as a voice for industrial unionism needs to undergo some reanalysis. we don't want to bring the jobs back, we want to mechanize local production. so, what does a left look like in a post-worker society? and, i have to deduce that it accepts some heavy concepts of redistribution, such as in the form of a gai, and is laser-focused on the needs for sustainability in development. that has to be the new left - a libertarian, ecosocialist left. as such, the greens may be replacing the ndp as the traditional third party, the party of leftist opposition, the party of new ideas.

while it may seem natural to expect the greens to merge with the ndp, it is actually more likely that the ndp will be absorbed by the ruling party. that's what actually tends to happen to historical lefts that get left behind by the mode of production. just ask the liberals in britain.

the sixth faction in canada is the nationalist francophone party, represented by the bloc at the federal level and three ideologically different parties at the provincial level. quebec actually has the full spectrum of separatist parties, now - the caq on the right, the pq in the centre and the qs on the left. what these parties all have in common is that they support some kind of devolution relationship with the federal government. the bloc were initially a faction of the conservative movement, before becoming a socialist party, and then eventually reorienting to a more centrist position. as this faction is not tied to any place on the spectrum, they exist outside of the dialectic at the level of federal politics, and fully realize it - they prefer to operate from a distant point of critique. but, canada has a competing three-party dialectic at the subnational level, with quebec as thesis, alberta as antithesis and ottawa as synthesis. via this dialectic, quebec has contributed ideas like national daycare to the federal policy discussion. so, this faction is intentionally obstructing at the parliamentary level but contributes to the erection of federal policy via this other mechanism. and, perhaps there may be a similar potential role for the hispanic caucus, as hispanic culture is legitimately distinct from eastern puritan culture, in the united states.
sometimes, the best way to start a third party is via a schism.

and, the obvious unstated truth is that the american voting public needs to participate in a three-party system or it won't succeed, as well - and that itself may be the larger barrier to adoption. my arguments about the nature of decision making would not appear to be convincing to most americans, who seem to insist on the superiority of a strong executive power. it is, after all, a system with an elected supreme military leader. and, if that is the case then the country is perhaps doomed to it's own cultural demise; it perhaps has no potential way forward but collapse, without altering itself to the point that it's no longer itself. but, america has already reinvented itself before, hasn't it?

i don't think it's a deep prediction that following the status quo in america is a path towards inevitable, irreversible decline. and, if i'm right about the two party system being a fundamental barrier to the enaction of substantive change, a rapid adoption of a three-party system may be a necessary and overdue shock to the gridlocked system. 

so, discussions about the role of a third party in america need to be seen with a longer lens view than whether any specific motion passes or not.
the role of a third party on the left is not to pass legislation, but to put forward ideas. it expects it's proposals to be roundly rejected, at least on first pass. it does not expect to rule, does not expect to govern and ideally has no realistic path to governing, either. those attracted to the role are consequently dedicated to the ideas they are promoting, and not their career paths.....because they don't have realistic career paths, and wouldn't walk down this path if they wanted them.

the role of an opposition party on the right is both to oppose the ideas presented by the left and to continually propose new ideas of their own. it does not expect to govern, either and is generally representative of minority interests in society - be they christian, muslim or whatever else. however, it will govern from time to time as the ruling party needs a break from government, a role it is better suited for than the left party because it is fundamentally conservative in nature, and will hold to the status quo until another round of synthesis can begin. when left parties take over instead of right parties, it signifies a rapid collapse in the fabric of society, perhaps brought on by the application of capitalist economic doctrines. mitch mcconnell actually does an outstanding job in this role, he's just missing any sort of balance.

the role of the ruling party in the centre - which is potentially the democrats - is to actually write legislation, by looking at all available data, including that presented by the two other parties. it needs to be the serious party, both idealistic in scope and yet grounded firmly in fiscal realities. it needs to actually understand the math, because it's writing the rules. as it will adopt a quasi-judicial role, and it is writing actual legislation, it needs to also explicitly rely on the judiciary for interpretation whenever possible.

it is only by separating the three parties into these specific roles that the aspirations of young politicians can be kept in check enough to prevent them from being captured. even so, a flow of capable policy wonks would be expected to migrate from both the left party and the right party to the ruling party in a fairly regular stream, and this should be seen as something to slow down rather than as something to prevent.
so, i was going for a walk and i realized that the force the vote thing ties into my idea about a three party system being preferable to a two-party system due to it providing for the possibility of a synthesis in the centre. maybe i should go over that briefly.

so, when you have a two party system what you see in observation is a pendulum-like effect, where both parties kind of shuffle around a shifting centre that fluctuates like a centre of gravity, through a moving field. it's an entangled system; it moves together, and it morphs, but it just pulls back and forth. so, ideas end up overwriting each other as the pendulum moves back and forth within a kind of closed, broken system.

this wasn't the intent surrounding the construction of the two party system. it was proposed that a two party system would allow for a vigorous debate of opposing ideas, followed by decisive action, as an executive power could be maintained. it was seen as a useful middle point between authority and democracy. yet, because it's nature is cyclical, as it operates like a pendulum, it has simply held the status quo in place, as the whole political architecture reduces to a series of two-person games with predictable outcomes. the two party system is really a hindrance to any movement at all, in any direction whatsoever, and a formula for exactly the kind of gridlock you see in the system right now. nobody can do anything because nothing will last more than a cycle, anyways.

perhaps the problem is in fundamentally misunderstanding how decisions are made collectively. if this system was meant to ensure some balance between authority and democracy, it seems to have fallen too far on the side of authority, and in the process just created a conflict with democracy. for, that is not how decisions are made collectively - we don't convince each other that one idea is superior and rally around it, we need to find common ground and work out compromises. so, perhaps the system is suffering from a serious design flaw, with this two-party hegemony. 

when you have a three party system, on the other hand, you don't get that kind of pendulum motion, where the center floats back and forth and re-emerges in the ruling party, continually sputtering all motion in place. rather, you can allow for two fundamentally opposition-style parties - a thesis on the left and an anti-thesis on the right - to introduce ideas from complete opposite sides of the spectrum, with the intent for them to synthesize in the party of the centre, which becomes a ruling party. while the opposition parties may form government from time to time, they do so as opposition parties, and such a rare occurrence signifies a collapse of the centre and construction of a new one. even in a stable three party system, the centre will need to collapse and reform every few decades; that's healthy for democratic renewal, and it ensures that an exchange of ideas is actually happening. when parties stay in power too long, they will stagnate; it's a necessary process.

so, the way debate happens in a three party system is that ideas are introduced on the fringe and sort of linger there for a while, either building support or dissipating out. eventually, if enough support builds on the fringe, motions are introduced that will be supported by one opposition party or the other - and vigorously opposed by the other. so, you end up with a much more direct debate around the value of any issue, because you have proponents of opposite ideologies hashing it out. in canada, this has looked like the ndp getting into debates with the conservatives over free trade, for example - something that found an eventual synthesis in the ruling party, albeit after a rightward shift to the centre brought in by the harper government. in the united states, this might look like the tea party republican faction getting into a debate with the progressive house caucus and really hammering away at issues from their respective positions.

as the government (either the ruling party in the house of commons, or the house or senate majorities) will of course oversee all of this, it has the opportunity to analyze it and try to work it through. and, see, that provides it with a very specific role - to synthesize a position from the thesis and antithesis positions that eliminates the contradictions and results in stable, longlasting policy that actually solves problems and puts sustainable systems in place to solve future ones. it would be useful if it understood that role in those terms. in canada, the ruling liberals have sort of accidentally stumbled upon that by trying to set up expert committees on everything, and delegating a lot of responsibility to the civil service. that is, the way that the liberals govern and have governed for a long time now works huge amounts of wonkish analysis into any decision being made. it's not a purposeful application of dialectics, but it's about as good of one as you could hope a government to stumble onto by accident.

and, that's the real answer as to why canada has all of these nice, shiny things; we avoided a two party system, and allowed for a broader exchange of ideas as a result of it. it's not specifically because of any one party, and in fact even the conservatives had a role to play in developing our universal health care system. rather, it was the ability to present the full spectrum of debate, between a left and a right, that eventually led to the ruling liberals deciding on the socialist nhs as a model to build a single-payer system around, due to heavy pressure by the awkwardly pseudo-left prairie gospel ndp.

so, the debate around forcing a vote on healthcare is about whether it will pass or not, but the fact that that's what the debate is about is exactly why systemic democratic change is impossible in america. you have to have a debate before you can win it! trying to externalize all of the actual democracy into back channel negotiating (and that's actually what aoc is advocating for) just throws it into the firepit. have the debate, yell it out, and come to some understanding about it; it's only as a process of these debates that a workable dialectic can arise. failing should be welcomed, for now.

but, you'll never hear that from aoc or any other politician affiliated with the democratic party because the logic of the two party system annihilates any potential of actual democracy. you've heard her say it - it would be "career suicide". and, she's right. but, if she was in a third party, she wouldn't be concerned about her future cushy career in the democratic establishment, and it wouldn't be a check on her behaviour. so, debate gets stamped out, thesis are not being presented, and workable legislation is not synthesized from them. there's no way forward, so long as the duopoly persists.

to state an obvious truth that does not need to be stated, but perhaps does need to be stated, ms. ocasio-cortez is an autonomous individual, and she's under no obligation to provide a medium for anybody to live vicariously through. if she's concerned about her career, that's her prerogative. but, the lesson here needs to be how impossible it is to get anywhere in a two-party system, and the absolute need to build a third party if there's any hope to get anything at all done. 
hopefully, there aren't too many errors.

it refocuses what the remaining concerns are. i'll need to carefully analyze a number of components when i finish with the fruit bowl.

so, back to that.

disclaimer:
i've gone to town with a few things - i'm not making up vitamins but rather filling things in. i mean, there's all these "missing vitamin names". what were they, exactly? it also gives me an excuse to work in a few things like choline that are hard to otherwise define as they are essential in some amount but not technically vitamins.

note that these numbers are scavenged and should be interpreted approximately. that's partly why i'm aiming to overshoot on most of it.

- bulk barn nutritional yeast

diet options:

daily:

 2 ) pasta salad bowl:
- one tbsp of imitation bacon bits (isoflavones, maybe)
- olives?
- red clover (if locatable or foragable, for phytoestrogens)
- alfafa?
- rice bran is similar to sunflower in b5, but lower in omega-6 and lower in choline. also, less e. it would be better if i find myself strictly concerned about b5, but in the pasta bowl. this seems unlikely.
- dried whey is a little lower in both b5 & higher in choline, but also has a little b12 & has almost no fat. it's almost like the missing part of the yeast. i'm having trouble finding it though and don't think the isolate available at bulk barn is comparable. it seems to be largely seen as a waste product in yogurt production. it may be broadly useful across plates.
- broccoli?

3) eggs:
- salami (45 g) (25% b1, 12% b3, 5% b5, 11.5% b6, 0% b9, 20% b12)
- rice (100 g) (60% b1, 35% b3, 4% b5, 6% b6, 69% b9)

need:

==========

remaining items to enter or investigate:

carotenoids (not including pro-vitamin a): <---maybe
1) lutein, 2) zeaxanthin, 3) lycopene, 4) phytofluene, 5) phytoene, 6) astaxanthin, 7) capsanthin, 8) canthaxanthin, 9) cryptoxanthin

chlorophyll:
1) chlorophyll a
2) chlorophyll b

other molecules required for proper metabolic functions:
5) ergothioneine  (cannot synthesize)   
6) pqq - .2 mg, or 400 ng, but can't find good sources
7) queuine - no rdi determined. milk, whole wheat, tomatoes.
10) creatine? (avoidance? creatine increases muscle mass (which is bad.) but also improves brain function (which is good). careful.) 
11) ribose
12) "nucleic acids"?
13) don't forget about heme
14) carnosine
15) allicin

glucose:
i'm more concerned about diabetes than weight gain, so...
the glycemic index is:
running total...

fiber:
i don't need many different types, i just need some. i'm not worrying about this.

& water

also, let's measure flavonoids:

anthocyanidins:
1) pelargonidin, 2) delphinidin, 3) cyanidin, 4) malvinidin, 5) peonidin, 6) petunidin, 7) rosinidin

flavonols:
1) isorhamnetin, 2) kaempferol , 3) myricetin, 4) quercetin  [rutin, troxerutin], 5) fisetin, 6) kaempferide

flavones:
1) luteolin, 2) apigenin, 3) techtochrysin, 4) baicalein (to avoid!), 5) norwogonin, 6) wogonin, 7) nobiletin

flavanones:
1) eriodictyol, 2) hesperetin, 3) naringenin, 4) hesperidin, 5) isosakuranetin, 6) pinocembrin, 7) sterubin

isoflavones:
1) daidzein, 2) genistein, 3) glycitein, 4) biochanin A, 5) formononetin

i should try to measure some further phytoestrogens:
1) matairesinol, 2) secoisolariciresinol, 3) pinoresinol, 4) lariciresinol, 5) coumestrol

& finally, let's also measure:
1) saponins, 2) ursolic acid (& precursors), 3) cafestol, 4) resveratrol, 5) ellagic acid, 6) coumarin, 7) tyrosol, 8) hydroxytyrosol, 9) oleocanthal, 10) oleuropein, 11) gingerol, 12) phytic acid
