Maps Show the Extremes of U.S. Population Density

29. The Senate has forgotten its original purpose...

2 reps from each state to represent the interest of the institution of that state government and its bureaucracy to the federal government. Each State Equal to the other in the eyes of the Law.

I'm not a fan of the Cornhusker Kickback, but I'll give that fucker credit for knowing what his actual constitutional job was.

I bring this up for the following reason:
Imagine, if you will, a Senate that understood this. A senator from fuck-all Kansas would inherently understand the advantage of raising the taxes of rich wall street and hollywood peeps, for the sake of having his own farmers' highways paid for. Imagine, if you will, a Senator from Michigan who understood that federal money to build, oh, let's say, a salt water fishery along lake superior would naturally allow his own people to compete with deep sea guys on the east coast, thereby generating revenue that would otherwise, ONLY go elsewhere. If the feds offer to pick up the tab for any states medicare bill, the senators that DONT want that for themselves are not only idiots, they're fundamentally not understanding their own job descriptions...AS ORIGINALISTS.

Yeah, I'll let that sit there for a second for ya.

The Senate was conceived as a way to ensure that the people who might not have the economic or political advantage of 'city life' not get fucked over for the sake of naturally low population density, and that's not a bad thing I think. But when that need of the low population density, devolves itself into culture war, conspiracy theories, and cut taxes on everyone, that's a problem.

Perhaps, the solution is to expand the number of house reps to 500, or even a thousand, and to propose an amendment that any senator that originates a bill, MUST FIRST have that bill approved by either the State Legislature they represent, or voted OK by the state population. Josh Hawley wants to fuck over major league baseball for the sake of political points? He should have to have gotten permission from the populations of St Louis and Kansas City before he talks to the Federal Government about such nonsense, is all I'm sayin.
