    I don’t even care so much about the Bicameral Compromise; but I do care that the electoral votes apply toward electing the President.

      The reapportionment act of 1929 is screwing us over in the electoral college. The House should have a LOT more representatives, which would make the it more fair.

      But more representatives would make it more difficult for big businesses to bribe them, and nobody is going to vote to dilute their personal power, so changing that is a nonstarter.
