The population disparity is much, much greater now than when the compromise was designed and approved, is is accelerating.
When 15% of the population can control the most powerful house of Congress there is a problem.
- peapicker 8y agoI guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I don't see it that way. The point is that our senators and representatives really need to work together to end divisiveness. While that isn't currently happening, I see that as the problem rather than the way the system is laid out.
