The purpose of a large General Court is to bring Government, Reps, as close to the people as possible, you can get at them and they can't hide. I can walk a Quarter Mile down the Street and yell at Carol Vita, my Rep and if she isn't there I can yell at Frank, her husband.

I think the NH has what the Founders envisioned as citizen representation. Accessibility and no money involved.

I certainly can’t argue with the accessibility aspect. But the lack of compensation versus time commitment leaves people like me out. Too bad Che-Pelosi forgot what it meant to be responsive to her constituents—not that she ever really was.
