re: #231 teleskiguy
I hate the senate, so goddamned undemocratic. It should be more proportional. Three senators for California, two senators for Virginia, one senator for Wyoming. Something along those lines in tune with the population.
It is the way it is because there would be no United States otherwise. None of the smaller states would have agreed to join the union if they knew they would essentially have to do what the larger states dictated. Personally I think it was a pretty decent compromise.
