I think the problem here is the intelligent voting population then realises a lot of this and becomes disenfranchised, which leaves the issues of the day to be decided by the not-so-intelligent voting population, or 'magpies', who cast their vote with as much researched forethought as they would employ were they deciding whether or not to supersize their combo at McDonalds.
