Ultimately, Kemrii, you're right. But here's the thing with politics that I call the majority-individual compromise: there are very few politicians that can represent most individuals, so most individuals make the compromise of grouping themselves so as to allow a majority of their beliefs to be put into action.

Modern Liberalism has little to do with the literal meaning you believe in. It believes in an equal system through equity so as to increase chance and success. Your system - the representation of as many individuals as possible - is nothing like the system that most interpret as liberalism.

People group themselves into liberal and conservative for a reason, my friend. I, technically, am a socially liberal semi-economic conservative libertarian, but there is no party for socially liberal semi-economic conservative libertarians. Instead, I'm forced to go with the party that best represents my beliefs, because it is impossible on the human scale to represent the individual over the group.

It is a beautiful ideal to believe in a groupless world, where everyone is looked at as an individual and not as part of a group. But when it is near impossible to know most people outside of your own immediate surroundings on that individual basis, it is fundamentally a near-insane feat, made on a god's will.
