Given that, definitionally, no system can be biased in favor of the less politically powerful, and given that a one-man-one-vote republic like the U.S. does not directly grant more power to any specific person outside of the government, what's your empirical standard for deciding that a specific set of changes are too imbalanced? I mean, if I took all your proposals and implemented them, poorer people would still be less politically powerful; when do you stop?
