Voting to Independents will only things difficult due to extreme voting patterns where each individual comes up with his/her own ideology leading to a chaos. The independents moreover are not linked to any larger grouping as such and that leads to irresponsibility to larger interests of the state and that's factionalism. It's always good to have people vote for individuals who stick to parties that have interests of the state(or a sub domain of it that needs separation) and nation in mind. That is how a Union can survive.
