America is Balkanizing

By contrast, central and eastern Oregon is a land of hardy ranchers, loggers and sawmill workers. Where daytime temperatures dropped below zero at the weekend after a snowstorm. And where locals say they have more in common with next-door Idaho than they do Portland and its $6 caffe lattes. 'Our movement is based on values,' said McCarter, 75, a retired nursery worker who runs courses for people who want concealed carry permits 'You know, the traditional values of faith, family, freedom, and independence. 'We don't want to be catered to by the government. In other words, if my power goes down, I have generator, I have water, everything ... food storage.'

People should have a government that reflects the population.
One city owning the politics of an entire state is pathetic. Its time to redraw some political lines.

The inner city leftist leadership stopped the City of St. George and they’ll stop this too

We don't need no government...
We need a 6 lane interstate, paved roads 10 miles long to 2 houses, and government mandated services to keep insurance low.

We should go back to only land owners having votes. Would significantly reduce the power of large cities

Agreed, full ownership. People paying a note dont really "own" their property, they have an ownership interest and no title.

I don't own land now. But, pay a lot in taxes. I think only taxpayers should vote. I understand your sentiment though.

And the only taxation is of landowners!!

Note or not, you don't own your land or what's on it.

The whole point of a constitutional republic with bicameral legislature and an independent judicial system with independent state's rights is to prevent 51% of the people from running roughshod over the 49%. This is why one particular party hates the constitution so much, calls it old, outdated, racist, living breathing document, and so forth. It's in the way of them having total control.

How much land? Do you have to live on the land you own? Are larger plots worth more votes? Does the demand for rental spaces decrease? If the new voting rules drive an increase in land acquisition, how do you address the tight squeeze?
