Wait, why would we want a bicameral system? We're already sustaining the unsustainable regions under this system; I don't know why we need
another
level of government.

It's the uncertainty about what form the bicameralism would take that makes me hesitate. Under the proper circumstances, maybe having a second chamber elected by the regions would give them something to do. But there's a lot of "what ifs" between that system and the current one that just checking off "bicameralism" doesn't ensure. I think there are lots of forms of bicameralism that would be an even worse trainwreck than what we have now.

Right; I wouldn't be in favor of telling the regions they must have a legislature in order to elect Senators if we decide to do things that way.

Do we need to establish that as a Constitutional matter? Or can we leave it up to the Senate/the House/the People?

What I mean is, we should continue to codify it in the statute. How best to do that is an issue to be addressed in transitional committees.
Yeah, exactly. I don't think it would be wise to make the laws harder to change in case the ConCon screws up somehow.
