Start here, for it is the only sustainable way to achieve the stability you advocate. Simply changing the composition of the two parties will not resolve the "problem behind the problems" that drives both party politics and the dysfunctions of our government.
The reason it has not been adopted, is that it is perceived to require more effort and/or risk on the part of the individual to implement it. But that beats the current paradigm of empowering an elite few to make all the decisions, even in areas where they CAN'T reliably discern what helps - or harms - a particular individual.
And no, this is not a pull-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstraps paradigm. We still have to pursue ways to help others and expand the "common good" - but by persuasion, not through the coercion which gets us stuck on stupid.
Certainly both parties are morally empty. And their guiding principles are 100% based on their financial and power ambitions. For both parties. They prefer to not solve problems and spend years fundraising while all the time saying they want to solve those very same problems that go unsolved (think debt and overspending).
As far as new ideas - we already have what will work, when it is consistently implemented.
