I do understand that. It is the same way with the EU, although the EU doesnt
have nearly as much control as a federation as does the US over its states. And
I (and others) still believe that one-man one-vote is the best, most logical,
and most democratic system in such a case. The entities of a federal government
are from states and upward. If it has any lower involvement, then it is just a
country, in which case one-man one-vote would still be the best system.
