Aaaaaand the more concentration of land, less industry, less urban life that generates the most industrial and financial power that piece of land with a line drawn on a map, more power the few that happen to live there will have...

I always thought that the way the votes are counted in the US is just absurd. Surely it is the people's votes that should be counted not on a state basis.

We began as a Federation of independent colony/states that bound together to throw-off a tyrant. Separation of powers is a theme running through our birth and history; as centralized power always becomes absolute and tyrannical.
"Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." It is the central theme of Western history. They sought to and succeeded in -for now- mitigating that trend, but tyrants never rest.

To anyone living in a democracy the electoral system in the USA is bizarre.
@Moravian Bizarre because they lack sufficient knowledge. Lacking knowledge isn't a crime. Yet, how many commit crimes and defamations because they lack knowledge or embrace myths AS facts?
@Silver1wun Well, to me it will always be one person, one vote.
Why is all that supposed to matter? Something either is or isn't; is accurate or inaccurate; is factual or not factual.
Astonishing to me how easily the mentally challenged pre-validate solely on the bases of sources; of messengers not messages. It really is primitive.
