That defeats the entire purpose of the current reprentative system if you have a mechanism to skew and pressure representation based on your financial resources as opposed to voters.
I already question the current representation system. It doesn't help when I know I can pump tens of millions or more into professional lobbyists to get unequal representation in government.
