I wasn't talking about that. The House is. Duh.
The problem is still that the Senate gives nearly empty, conservative states outsized power they don't deserve. It was a Colonial concern that no longer exists to the degree it did during the founding.

There is easy solutions for this.
1. Break up the union. Each state goes it own way or forms a block between neighbours.
2. Get rid of states in general. Same federal laws and rule over all of the USA.

Reorgs rarely solve anything and administratively impossible. 50 currencies. Too many cities to roll-up to DC.
