So what system would be better than what we have now? Almost anything else, really.
We should be working toward the democratic principle of equality of representation, not demanding an absolute fealty to a standard of one person, one vote. We can achieve a more equitable, representative system without succumbing to the temptation of the easy (but drastic) fix, the unintended consequences of which could be as dire as they are difficult to foresee. It will come as little surprise, at this point, that I have a solution in mind.
