The rural areas have much less representation Isn’t this literally not true?

  Key word “areas”. Of course it’s true. WY has 1 representative to CA’s 53.

    CA has 53 districts. Those districts are under representative because they each get 2/53 of a Senator and WY district gets 2. State borders are fictions.

      The Senate was never intended to be representative of the population. That is specifically why we have both the House and the Senate.

        And states were never intended to be drawn to balance out slave power. And political parties were never intended to exist in federal government. Guess someone fucked up.
