On the electoral college: dirt doesn't vote and shouldn't set policy. These cities where everyone lives are the places that should set policy. They are the places where the most people have to live with the policies that are set. I'm not saying ignore the rural areas in the rural people, I'm just saying that they are second class and should be treated as second class, for good reason.

Do you like to eat? Because the people hanging out with that dirt are the people producing your food. Have some respect. Your cities are far more fragile and dependent than you like to pretend.
