We should have a man and a woman representing each district and state to guarantee 50/50 representation.

I agree. In the Senate, a person from North Dakota mattets 50 times more than I, a CA resident, do.

No, a person in ND matters exactly equal as a person in CA; HoR. The STATE of ND matters exactly equal to the state of CA, as a whole, thanks to the design of the Senate. Basic Civics class in middle school.

They don't think of the US as a collection of sovereign states.

Think you may be right. Without the Senate protecting equality of the individual States; we’d be a continent of any number of nations—so basically Europe.

I guess if it doesn't serve your interests it is ridiculous. We have the greatest country in the world and things have worked well since our independence. By the way, love your music. I'm just

Then you’re saying wrong. It’s designed exactly for State equality. HoR is equal rep. for the people; the Senate equal rep. for the States, thus we are united. Otherwise, CA, TX, FL, & NY could be tyrants over the rest. Might as well be 50 countries at that point.
