Why don't we allocate senate seats by percentage of national gdp instead of two for every state?

why don't we allocate senate seats by percentage of national gdp instead of two for every state?

Because niggers spending their welfare dollars increases the GDP... are you serious?

That's just a way to kill white people and set up the United States of Beaners and Niggers even quicker.

Because finance doesn't produce anything and would give blue states an advantage

that is a retarded suggestion because you are making it without a clear idea of what the problem is. once you define that you can apply a solution

>giving MORE voting power to commiefornia and texas

bait or shitposting, or some sick combination of the two.

if that was true wouldn't MS and LA have the biggest GDPs.

why should Wyoming have an equal say as california in the matters of the most powerful country in the world when it literally contributes nothing to it?

yeah because its the welfare that gives gdp, not actual work
use your fucking brain

Now this is the kind of gerrymandering I approve of.

are you fucking new? it's clear that the senate is unconstitutional. it violates the principle of "one person, one vote" there is no fucking way that giving TWO senate seats to alaska and TWO to California is fucking fair.

because the Senate is equal representation and the House is proportional representation you dumb nigger

alright, so your identified issue is "The Senate is unconstitutional." Article I of the constitution plus the 17th pretty clearly define the constitutionality of equal representation of the senate. Try again. What is the identified problem?

but the principle of the senate violates "one person, one vote"

> the Senate is unconstitutional
> literally written in the fucking constitution

>everything in the constitution is constitutional

wow how's that 3/5ths compromise working out for you

red people in those liberal hellhole cities are far more productive than the lefties. why not assign vote weight to the individual based on how much tax they pay?

also Article V states "no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate"

senate representation is actually a protected right of the states in the constitution faggot

You realize the Senate exists to counter the house and the states are supposed to be equal in the Senate. Why even ask retardation like this? You should have asked why the House isn't based on GDP, at least that would have been somewhat rational.

How about we eliminate the House of Representatives all together and just have the Senate with the current two per state. Equality for each state. Aren't liberals all about equality?

the point is you cant actually define any reason for it being unconstitutional whereas the 3/5ths compromise is a settled issue

does california have equal suffrage in the senate? yeah i don't think so.

Learn basic economics retard

You would increase the GDP for a short period by breaking all the windows in a town

moron, each person has a vote to determine who their senators are.

> one state one vote
> one person one vote

it balances out you autismo

Not knowing the 3/5s compromise isn't in the constitution. Gas urself

>three biggest states in order are california, texas, and new york
Literally nothing changes

it's funny because trump won the rich by less than a couple digits but apparently that means he won all the rich. on the other hand, counties like LA, the NYC boroughs, etc literally voted for Hillary by like 30+ points over donald trump.

Those counties aren't exactly bastions of wealth. Even in Manhattan most people don't exactly work in banking.

that's why the shittiest states have the most gdp, amarite?
and not the ones that actually host huge corporations and have tons of industry?

2% of the rich is a massive amount of taxes. 0.5% of the rich pay more taxes than the 30% poor people who voted for shillary

i've mentioned "one person, one vote" which the supreme court has used to decide the constitutionality of state legislative chambers that are modeled off the senate (ie equal representation)

PS all state legislative chambers that have been modeled off the US senate have been declared UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

the constitution doesn't define state legislative chambers in terms of the senate like it does for the US senate

no you wouldn't. who is paying for the windows to be repaired? someone is losing money which means industry is failing and no one is buying anything other than windows and the consumption of windows doesn't drive an entire economy especially when every other industry is being depressed.

Niggertown doesn't pay anyone to fix their windows. Or redneckville for that sake.

Voronoi diagrams arouse me desu

its to provide all states with an equal vote, thats like asking "maybe everyone should have be able to cast 1 vote for every $10,000 they make" well you moron because that gives the control of the entire government to rich people and goes completely against the constitutional ideas of equal representation among people and states.

0/2

> California is one state, gets two votes
> Missouri is one state, gets two votes

stop

what? read the constitution.
but that implies every state has equal population which they don't.
The Three-Fifths Compromise is found in Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the United States Constitution, which reads:
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.
but there's a bigger likelihood that she won over those bankers than the likelihood trump won over all the rich.

>but that implies every state has equal population which they don't.
no it doesnt, that is the reason for a bicameral system

Yes you would, for a short period of time.

Why do you think post-war economies see a boost? No demand = Crash.

>California
>2 senate seats for 40 million people
>13% of GDP

>MO
>irrelevant state with same number of senate seats

how is that equal? that'd be like making white people's vote only worth .75 of a regular vote because there are so many white people

wtf is that ugly ass chart

you'd be right if we didn't have TWO houses with equal legislative power. because we have another one with a person per vote it fixes so big States don't fuck small States and small States don't fuck big States
