    You’re literally arguing that people shouldn’t get equal representation because you think land votes.

      I’m literally not.

      I’m saying checks and balances should exist because we are a country of states with different environments, different hardships, and different cultures, not a country of Californians.

        Checks and balances that give inequality. Lol

          Okay, one more go at trying to teach Civics 101 to the one who cant walk and chew bubblegum at the same time.

          So 1 state having all the power is equality?

          In your mind, equal = Californian?

          1 large homogenized (probably too big a world for you, but you can google) population has the right to rule over every other population?

          49 groups of people get overruled because 1 of the groups has more people?

          That is why checks and balances are in place. To ensure EVERYONE gets representation, not just one powerful group.

          Each state does have States rights though, so they can do as they please with their group. Unless it is something that has successfully made it through checks and balances to be enforced on the nation as a whole.

          EVERYONE should be represented at the Federal level, not just the majority group.

          With your throwing around of the topic of slavery earlier in the conversation, I’d think you would be for that.

            So Californians should just live in Wyoming to get represented?

              Californians are the only people in America that have more representation than someone in any other state.

              They just cant steam roll the other 49 states in the Federal legislative branch because the Senate protects those 49 states from California, the state with the most legislative representation in America.

              Seriously dude, shut your mouth and read a book.

                They have the least representation per capita

                Californians are the only people in America that have more representation than someone in any other state.

                This is false. They are extremely under represented in the Senate, and the House scales with population.

                  This is true, they have more representatives in congress than any other state.

                  Thank you for explaining how Congress works, and contradicting yourself in the process.

                    You clearly misunderstand proportionality. You keep referring to the raw number of representatives they have without factoring in their population. I’d be surprised if you’ve ever passed a mathematics class in your entire life.
