I have a better idea, let's break up some highly overly gigantious ones.

Since we're talking about adding states. Why not merge some of the unpopulated ones?

1. I think The Dakota's should be merged into one state. It is almost a joke that they get 2 senators a piece as they only have 700k and 1.1k. I'd like to go further and merge them with Minnosota to increase the population even more.
2. I'd also merge Wy with Idaho and maybe even Mt. Imagine Wy, Idaho and Mt being one state. It would only have like ~3.5 million people( 2 million for idaho, 1.1 million for mt and 600k for Wy.) or around the population of Oregon.
3. I'd like to merge Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri into one.
4. Oh, republicans. You could also argue that road island could be merged with Delware, and New jersey.
5. The Virginia's could be merged back into one.
6. The Caralina's into one.
7. I'd like to see Ok and Ark merged.
8. I think we should allow Puerto rico as a state but with the US virgin islands.
9. I think California and Texas should be cut in half. San fransico being the capital of the north. In fact the border would be just south of San fransico. Texas could be cut in half or thirds. One could be the southern third that is nearly 80-90% hispanic. Which would give more power to them.

I'd like to do this to make the senate more equal. I think states need to have more like 4-6 million people. I'd also argue that florida, New york and Pa could possibly be turned into two states to meet this goal. Maybe New york and long island could be one state...All while upstate new york could be another. Hint. Red state!

You arent very bright are you? There is an old saying, something the Democrats forgot. "United We Stand, Divided We Fall, One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." Each state is so a person can go to and be part of that liberty and justice, or go to a blue state, where you are taxed to death, crime is out of control, along with fires, floods and earthquakes. We dont need to merge any states, we just need to keep the overbearing government from taking our liberties and forcing equity and social justice on the rest of US.

I was thinking subtraction and merging the northeast and west coast with cuba or some other communist dump.

Let's just keep electing adults. If we can increase the MAGA majorities in the House and Senate to give President Trump a good year three and four, he will have accomplished a great deal in cleaning house and restoring our government to something much closer to what the Founders intended. And hopefully JD will then be President and carry that agenda forward for another eight years.

Sooner or later the woke idiots and bad actors will have retired from government and/or died off and we will have enough people left with common sense.

Meanwhile we will have 12 years of well educated students who aren't indoctrinated with all that woke crap and might have a chance for another 200 years or so of a strong, free, secure, prosperous America that is the shining city on a hill to the world.

By then I'm guessing a lot of those sick blue states will again be red.

 

[Unkotare]

There are no "unpopulated" states.

 

[Missourian]

So you're ok with Texas and Florida only getting 2 senators. While states like the Dakota's, have 1/16th the population get 4. Talk about dumb.

Senators represent states...not people.

In fact, before the 17th amendment, the States chose their own Senators, not popular elections.

 

[WorldWatcher]

See...

..... ..... United States Constitution, Article IV, Section 3.

..... ..... ..... ..... Let us know the likelihood of the State Legislatures agreeing.

You are full of stupid ideas.

Last I looked, there were people living in all 50 states.

Last I looked, there were people living in all 50 states.

Are you sure of that?

 

[Independent thinker]

Are you sure of that?

Do you have proof there are states where no one lives?

 

[Dante]

Do you have proof there are states where no one lives?

If "proof" is anything like "truth," you people-of-the-cult have already weighed in on that.

MAGA: "Truth isn't truth" and "there are alternative facts"

"Can people trust, fully trust a convicted felon?"

 

[Lesh]

I think we can spilt CA into 4 states, same with NY

And Texas

 

[Lesh]

Do you have proof there are states where no one lives?

Wyoming

Just kidding

 

[tahuyaman]

Are you sure of that?

Yes. There is no uninhabited US state. There is no county in the 50 states which has a population of Zero.

 

[Dante]

Yes. There is no uninhabited US state. There is no county in the 50 states which has a population of Zero.

How can you be so sure of that?

 

[tahuyaman]

How can you be so sure of that?

Because the census has confirmed it.

 

[Dante]

Because the census has confirmed it.

Now you believe government agencies and all their progressive volunteers can be trusted?


"Can people trust, fully trust a convicted felon?"

 

[tahuyaman]

Now you believe government agencies and all their progressive volunteers can be trusted?


"Can people trust, fully trust a convicted felon?"

I trust that they are truthful in reporting that there is no county in the 50 states which is uninhabited. Why are you sticking with your stupid position?

 

[petro]

Actually merging the Dakotas with MN would turn MN red and cancel out the idiots in the Twin Cities.

Maybe the OP is onto something...
