Steve do you know Columbus’ population?

Columbus, OH was 5.6% Hispanic in the 2010 Census, while Los Angeles was 48.5% Hispanic. If, say, half of Hispanics are non-citizens, then LA gets a boost in its number of House of Representatives seats of 24% while Columbus gets a boost of only 3%. This is unequal and unfair.

I must have missed something. I thought only citizens could vote and were counted in the census to determine the distribution of house seats per state. Ultimately I reached out as I was curious about why you chose Columbus for the example.

No, illegal aliens are currently counted in determining how many seats a state gets in the House of Representatives. States with many illegals, such as CA and TX, get more Representatives, while states with few illegals, such as Ohio, get fewer Representatives.

Very very stupid and completely insane. Thanks for dropping some knowledge on me Steve. By the way, have you ever heard of
@StefanMolyneux? I think you two doing a podcast together would be epic.

In their famous operatta (HMS Pinafore), G&S have a line about how the First Lord of the Admiralty ascends by being sent "from a pocket borough into Parliament." Not quite the same thing as a "rotten borough," but a similar idea.

Right Steve, but it’s discrimination to not let illegal aliens benefit from influencing the weight of the vote. That’s Who We Are.

You know, I wonder if the size of Congressional districts should be based on eligible voters rather than on the total population.

You broke my brain with that one..... But on the flip side.....districts with high populations get more federal funding...if that district is high % illegals.... its definitely a rip-off... Stop that, and you stop the reason why democrats want illegals.
