I mean, that’s not really how I’d describe the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, and you’re not really addressing how this body would lessen the impact of NIMBYism. It seems like, if anything, it would be easier for largest states to caucus together and dictate what they don’t want in their backyards. You’re also not addressing why it’s fair for states who already control less than 50% of the land within their borders to have even less influence over those lands. It’s certainly an interesting proposal, but I still think you’re throwing the baby out with the bathwater when it comes to the Senate’s check on high density states.
That’s because the baby is dead. Trying to protect the empty states is a noble idea. But they’ve engaged in such bad faith we cannot continue to allow it. Instead 3/4 of Americans are forced to bow down to their demands. The majority of which have nothing to do with their land. Guns, healthcare, work safety, Unions, education, and the bedroom are all flipped on their head because of a minority.
You’re so worried about a tyranny of the majority, you’re letting a tyranny of the minority happen.
Well, I think we’re at the point where we have to agree to disagree, but I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I’d never heard of some of the ideas you’d brought up before, it certainly given me some new things to look into.

Yeah, thanks for engaging honestly.
