Abolish The Senate

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

I think the Senate should be apportioned by population.

I also think the House should be districted without regard to state boundaries. Many districts would cross state lines, but that's just tough.

You mean like the House of representatives?

Wasn't having a House and a Senate kinda the whole point of "The Grand Compromise"

The same 'Grand Compromise' that ultimately led to a Civil War and a part of the country trying to secede? Clearly something worth keeping hold of...

No that was a different compromise, the 3/5th compromise.  There is a fairly simple solution if large states feel like they don't have enough Senators, split up.  While technically the Congress has to approve such a split, they have yet to reject one that has been presented to them.

Rather than abolish the Senate, I'd like to limit its power.  When it comes to ordinary legislation, unless it directly affects State governments, it should as most be able to offer comments and suggestions and have a limited period (say twenty session days) in which to do so.  Thus budget bills and most other "must pass" legislation would only need to pass the House unless they included provisions involving the States.  Not only would this help eliminate a stumbling block, it would provide an incentive to reform programs that are currently structured as Federal-State joint programs where both sides can take the credit for the good they do while blaming the other for any problems associated with the problem.  Those programs make it difficult for there to be clear lines of responsibility.  A lot of the problems with the ACA are precisely because key provisions were enacted as joint responsibilities with no good fallback if States chose to not dance to the tune of the Federal piper.
