Is it when it does or when it does not benefit your particular position on whatever issue? I am not being difficult, I am tryign to understand your frame of mind. It is possible you are already too far gone.
It's when the minority functionally has more rights/say in things than the majority. Take the electoral college for instance, I consider the fact that you could win an election with only 23% of the population voting for you makes it fundamentally flawed and should be removed.
The same can be said for how we distribute seats in the senate and house. The difference in population between the largest and smallest state when the constitution was ratified was around 12x. It's now 70x and I consider that to be unacceptable in terms of weight of power wielded by those smaller states.
Interesting. If you know how this country was created, you likely know why senate looks the way it looks and why house looks the way it looks. If you are suggesting update, it is well within your rights to argue for that change. However, there are enough people, who think it is important to keep senate seats limited.
I obviously disagree with you on civics, but what would you suggest? I already think there is way too much concentrated power ( I absolutely do not want it ruled by biggest available mob per given state ), but I think we disagree over why.
