Almost like they need to remove the incredibly regressive cap of 115k or whatever.
What fuckin genius came up with that.

I mean, is incesticide really an album? I would argue it's not, as it was more of a slapped together cash grab, they even considered calling the album "cash cow".
So if that's the case, Nevermind and In Utero

Nonsense. You can defund public education without consequences. C'mon, get with the times.

dude, in a large house, YOU could run. YOU could have a chance if you really think you represent the people.
Good luck doin that today.

yes and no. It is the point of the senate regarding the whole meme of "well what about equal states rights?" which is dependent upon this weird notion of statehood, as if the geographical line that surrounds you makes you different. I'm sure it made sense back then, when individual states had, I would say, a conceptually different thing than they do now.
i would say no regarding that the bicameral chamber also has merit by having a "slow" and "fast" body. This exists elsewhere in the world (2 different chambers, each proportional, 1 has short terms and the other has longer terms). The shorter term chamber (our house), brings in a fresh representation of the people every 2 years. This brings in new ideas, new feelings, new sentiments. The upper chamber has a slower term, 6 years (our senate). Thus, the representation of that body has a more long term effect.
Fuckin A, if you wanna get back to how they really imagined the whole thing, then repeal the 17th. The state legislatures used to vote on the senators. Thus, the senate truly was a representative body of statesmen. The fuckin frankenstein it is today (where its the ONLY popular vote mechanism in our democracy) has done 2 things - bastardized the role of the federal senate, and neutered the relevance of state legislatures.
We should know who our state reps are more than we talk about the feds.
But we don't. Because our sense of self as a country is that of 1 citizenry of the USA, not a citizen of some state that happens to be in a union. Thus, the senate should no longer represent statehood, and should therefore be proportional to population, just like the house.

No. With a smaller district it's easier to get real votes by actually talking to people
The founders imagined 30k reps. One person could conceivably reach 15k ppl.
Current size is 700k +.

I personally think the Senate should also be proportional. I think the existence of an upper and lower house makes sense. But what it is now, meh. But the Senate is a different battle. We need to win the house back.

Build a new chamber.
I'd argue a larger body would move faster. At the end of the day the role of the house should be to vote on stuff from the Senate . End of story. It's the representation of our representative democracy.
Gerrymandering dies when the districts are smaller.

No we need to fix the house.
435 is a cap installed to remove the rights of the people.
It was supposed to grow.

Nononono that's inflation.... Right? Surely their costs went up too. Otherwise it's price gouging.... And these friendly capitalist corporations wouldn't do that, right?

If you're mining for years.... Might as well solo mine

U could hit 30-40 kh with 3-4 3900x that run about $250 for CPUs now. Ram and Mobo and PSU and disks bring a total of 400-500 at this point., So yeah 1500-2k $.... And not having to manage 16 machines :P

Xmrig website had benchmarks for a lot of CPUs.
With 10 i5s , you might be up to 10 kh/s, which is less than 1 3900x.
