Anyone who says sh!t like that should be beheaded on a high resolution DVD (two for a dollar).

The point is to give densely populated areas less influence in one house, thus resulting in more local control.

That's the Senate, my friend. And 50% of our legislative population going to 10% (at most) of the population is a bit, uh, how do you phrase it? Stupid.

ONCE AGAIN!! I'M TALKING ABOUT STATE LEGISLATURES!!!

As for the 50 to 10 thing, I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

And Philip claims it's a moderate one. LOL!

So far he's the only one to actually support it in posting, and almost 90% of the forum are opposed.

Yeah. If freedomburns think it's stupid, that proves it.

John Dibble also supported it.

He said only in issues that actually involve land ownership though, such as property taxes and zoning laws. I doubt he would support the idea as you propose it.
