TotallyOz Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Fascinating article and these states will have the majority of jobs and income but less representation in the Sentate. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/politics/wp/2018/07/12/in-about-20-years-half-the-population-will-live-in-eight-states/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.ac8daf41dbcf Quote
Members Latbear4blk Posted October 16, 2018 Members Posted October 16, 2018 I am starting to think that a a second civil war is not a crazy idea. Will Conservatives allow a reform of the Constitution and the electoral laws to make the USA representation system more democratic? Would let allow eliminating the electoral college and switch to a direct presidential election? Would they accept those necessary adjustments pacifically? Quote
Members RA1 Posted October 17, 2018 Members Posted October 17, 2018 No, they will not. The Constitution and electoral college were put in place just so that a populous state or states could not dominate the country. Of course there is a process allowing the change you mention. It is generally long and arduous for a good reason. Best regards, RA1 Quote
