The concept of the Senate, at least as implemented by the United States Constitution, is anti-democratic. In the state of Montana each senator represents ~500,000 people, in Michigan ~5,000,000 people, and in California ~19,500,000 people. A citizen of Montana has 39 times the representation of a citizen of California, and 10 times the representation of a citizen of Michigan.

All things obvious to anyone who has been paying attention, and about which our elected leaders have done little or nothing since this conversation began circa ~2003 [20 years ago].

In a recent conversations the topic of lidding / capping interstates has come up. This is a topic which comes up occasionally, and was last [AFAIK] semi-seriously discussed during the development of the Michigan St Corridor Plan.
Aside: the first essay form posts on this site was 👉Getting Around & The Michigan St Plan👈 in March of 2015
