Speed is great if you've got the right course of action. If you've got the wrong plan, that just means you screw things up even faster.
What you lose when any party has a supermajority is a sense of discourse, of having to justify (in a good way) your plan. Without that it boils down to politicians having free reign.
Maybe it's just me, but I would think that "politicians having free reign" would strike fear in the heart of anyone.

I totally agree with what you're saying. At this point the only thing we can do is what and see how it plays out and hope to god they don't screw it up.
