Each 1 Wyoming voter is worth about 67 Californians in the senate due to the fact that California has about 67 times the population but still only 2 senators.

38,940,231 Californians / 576,851 Wyomingites = ~67.5 ratio

And that is what the house is for, dipshit.

The Senate is to check an overpopulated state from having complete control over the other 49 states and whatever amount of territories or whatever we are calling them.

Seriously dude. Try rubbing 2 brain cells together.

Nothing you've written amounts to an argument. Your appeals to tradition are a logical fallacy. I suggest you read about the Connecticut Compromise and stop writing unnecessary insults which do nothing productive.
