36. Well I believe
They need to change the Senate. 2 Senators on a per state basis and not a population basis simply makes 0 sense in modern America. The Country needs to be re-zoned based on equal population sizes and not artificial state boundaries.

I’d also like to see the house districts increased with say 10 representatives per district. Then proportion out the seats in the district based on party percentage of the vote. Hey the country wasn’t suppose to be run by political parties, but it IS so it seems like it would be smart to start having election based on party. This would end the 2 party strangle hold.
