No I’m very serious. Allowing the plebes to vote has done a lot of damage to the country. They just vote to take from others. That isn’t how to run a country.

You keep saying there is something wrong with the system when there isn’t. It works as designed and it won’t change in our lifetime.

The voters don’t matter as much as the state. That’s how the system was designed and works.

Also it isn’t a rented. It while require an amendment and it won’t happen for the reasons I’ve described. The little states won’t want to lose their power. As such it’s a thought exercise at best
