- thrower123 8y agoThe senate was never meant to be democratic; the state of US government classes must be atrocious these days, because people never seem to understand this. Senators have only been directly elected at all for 100 years, they were supposed to be a check on populism from the lower house, and a way for smaller states to block large states from ramrodding through nationwide legislation.
