Or admit new states to the union, which in many cases we should absolutely be doing anyway. DC and Puerto Rico being the most obvious (and the easiest sells), but I think this extends to the other territories the US holds. Also only requires a simple majority in Congress + President so isn't an insurmountable task like abolishing the senate. i would also note that all states would be equally represented in the senate if we abolished it. we'd simply be changing the number of senators per state from 2 to 0. i'm calling the air bud rule on this. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:931852912] in Politics C...
