[pjspbray] Majority political party too much power

I think there exist quite a few mechanisms in legislatures such that the majority party, even if holding a slim majority, gets 100% of the power.  Committee chairmanships might be one example.

Consider modifying rules so this happens less often.  The larger goal is to make partisanship less prominent, in which a legislator is forced to make decisions for the best interest of the party.
