In a very short number of years, 70 Senators will be elected from states with about 35% of the total population. So 35% of the country will control the country through the US Senate. Is that democracy?
The United States has NEVER been a true democracy rather we are a very carefully crafted Federation striking an ingenious balance between individual and regional interests needs, and aspirations. Without that balance the United States of America, as we know it, would never have come into being and much of the continent would still be held in allegiance to the Queen of England and our biggest concern would be Brexit.
