What if the United States still had 50 states but they all had a roughly equal population?
It might look something like this fantastic map, drawn by mapmaker Neil Freeman.
From Pocono to Shasta, from Atchafalaya to Mesabi, this land is made for you and me.
Funny thing: in this map, the big states in the West are even bigger, because NOBODY LIVES THERE. In this map, places like Boston and Throgs Neck and San Fran get their own pairs of senators, because people actually live here. If the map looked like this, maybe presidential campaigns would be about mass transit instead of guns.
I drop a comment each time I especially enjoy a post
on a site or I have something to contribute to the conversation.
It’s triggered by the fire displayed in the post I browsed.
And on this post Fun with maps: A U.S. map with equal pop.s | Prof Chris Daly’s Blog.
I was actually moved enough to post a thought 🙂 I
do have a few questions for you if you do not mind. Could it
be only me or do some of the comments look as if they are left by brain
dead people? 😛 And, if you are writing at other places, I would like to follow you.
Could you list every one of all your shared sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed,
or linkedin profile?
