Who pays more in taxes?
See for your self. I'd say the tax incidence outlined below would be perfectly just if votes were counted on a weighted-tax basis. So the famous one-percenters' votes counted towards 29.5% of the total and the bottom 20% only accounted for 4.7%. Then I'd be jealous of all those rich people... paying every one else's bills for them.
Yes but don't give them any ideas: I can see a proposal for allocating electoral votes / House Reps based on each state's carbon footprint. Though if that did happen, it would be a perfect justification for secession.
