You wanna fix American politics and with that nearly all other problems with it?
Stop the “winner takes all” system you have right now.
You’ll get a hundred political parties that have to compete with eachother. People will start voting more because now there are parties they can actually agree with and you get rid of this “always nearly 50/50” bullshit and one big party that blocks any proposal to actually improve the country
Want to stop the bank on assault rifles? Good luck stopping 20 parties
