Nothing screams ignorance of the Article The First debate from the founding era to the present time like the angry comments to Todd's tweet. Todd is also ignorant. The comments also scream complete complacency with the current state of arrested and poorly rated representation.
The state of New Hampshire has a population of 1,415,342 and 400 representatives in its state house, a ratio of 3,538 citizens to 1 representative. Representatives get paid $100-$200 . . . per year, plus mileage lol. New Hampshire ranks 46th for its low public debt load because it has a balanced budget requirement, and most things are funded through property taxes instead of income and sales taxes.
The United States has a population of 343,011,044 and 435 representatives in the U.S. House, a ratio of 788,531 citizens to 1 representative. 45% of representatives have a net worth of $1 million or more. America's public debt load is the highest in the world, with most things being inadequately funded.
America should be more like New Hampshire.
Meanwhile the Buttigiegs of the world want representation to shrink!
