This is my first V post so bear with me.
The 1964 Reynolds v Sims Supreme Court ruling, known as the “one-person,one-vote” decision, changed our state governments into nearly pure democracies, not what our founders created. States are constitutionally required to allocate seats in their houses of representatives by population, but in their senates by geographic areas (counties). That was to guarantee the states mirrored the federal government’s constitutional republic. That’s so we would have balance on the state as well as federal levels. That’s so we wouldn’t have mob rule and urban areas with large populations wouldn’t rule the rest of any state. That’s exactly what’s happening in every state in the union. To change, we need to challenge Reynolds v Sims in some state court, and then on to the U.S.Supreme Court because we will surely lose in state court. That will require time, money and expertise. But it would set precedent for every state government to return to what our founders created in the constitution; a constitutional republic with democratic process. Does anyone have a contact with Elon Musk? Elon, we need your help.
@camshinn We've been watching your posts showing all the fun things you guys are doing together and feeling so happy you're getting to do them. Enjoy! These are special days in short supply.
@camshinn Good job! Seems like a lot to me. I'm always writing letters to our legislators and I agonize over getting it just right for a page and a half letter.
@traedturner I had over a hundred record(vinyl). I would record my favorite songs from different albums onto cassettes; some for trips, some for at home. To say they were eclectic is an uderstatement.
