Jonah "nevertrumper" GoldbergI personally believe if states want their votes to count, they should adopt a model like Nebraska and Maine, but THEY won't. If Kalifornia had such a model, Trump would have picked up significantly more votes.
I agree that We-The-People lack representation, that’s why they are a bunch of do-nothings ...and also the fact that they took State Legislatures’ power away by allowing the uninformed voters to elect Senators
“idiot”
It takes one to know one, Jonah.
I’ve never given this idea any thought, but the law of unintended consequences makes me suspicious of it from the outset.
The House of Representatives is an anachronism. Representatives should only craft the legislation. The people themselves can vote on it. End a lot of lobbying problems. Would make the news report on actual legislation instead of secret dossiers...
You’re both idiots.
...the American Enterprise Institute, whose purpose is akin to that of Christian monasteries in the Dark Ages — to keep the flame of civilization alive — until the universities are hospitable to reason again.
If we want to make it more representative we could make a law - with criminal penalties - against groups pretending to be private citizens writing letters to congressmen. Democrat War rooms do that all the time... pretend to be conservatives writing ‘heartfelt’ letters to our reps - trying to throw off our guys.
Outlaw dirty tricks and democrats are finished as a party.
Good afternoon.
I won’t say that Jonah is an idiot in deference to his mother, but I will say George should stick to baseball.

Jonah "nevertrumper" GoldbergThis would only work if we had a virtual Congress doing business via the Internet, and the congressmen stayed home in their districts all the time.
I’ve supported this idea for decades. I think it will make it extremely difficult for lobbyists to significantly buy votes and I think it will allow the creation of additional political parties which will dampen the ability of the current two parties to drain the blood from the people.
I’m not sure I’m for electronic voting because making their asses report to a stadium sized facility and vote seems a good thing to me.
Limit the days in session, limit their staff size and most of all limit the number of terms they can serve.
We’ll never drain the swamp completely, but this will assure much smaller alligators.
Given the above, I am hoping and praying these wordsmiths who cannot do anything else but get hired to string words together get meaningful employment. Translate that to, I did NOT read baby Jona’s latest whine.
George Will, Jonah Goldberg - no winner in that pair.
A ME-NE model would really help Republicans in OH, FL, VA, PA, MI, probably even IL. Less so in NY, OR, and CA
Gee, Will on one side and Goldberg on the other; WHOM to root for? Both eat shiite and are fakes so I can’t decide who is the lowest pos.
