Abolish the United States Senate

[Wilson23]

Devolve all its powers and functions on the House. What good did the Senate ever do anyway? A unicameral legislature is just better.

 

[Wilson23]

One of the FFs described the Senate as the saucer into which the passions of the House are poured for cooling, but, come on, when has that ever happened? There is not a single incident in American history of which we can honestly say, "The House passed that crazy bill -- thank God it died in the Senate!"

 

[Wilson23]

The main point of the FFs' "Great Compromise" was to prevent Virginia -- biggest state at the time -- from dominating the Union.

Hardly seems relevant now. No state is big enough to dominate the Union in its present formation.

 

[Wilson23]

Who sees any good reason to keep it?
