Rural areas getting proportionate political power, instead of disproportionate political power won't get ignored either. No more then racial and religious minority groups are being ignored, that is. Yet, here we are, with rural areas having disproportionate political power, and urbanites being discriminated against (Governments tend to take money from the cities, and give it to rural areas.)

Elsewhere, you've suggested that rural areas deserve to get extra votes, because they are likely to participate in an armed revolt. In that case, why shouldn't we give men extra votes, compared to women? Most armed revolts are carried out by mostly men. Should we ration out political power to the most violent minority group of people that we can find? Maybe give the former Confederate states each an extra senate seat or two, and a handful of congressional ones?
