Senescence conflates with Dunning Kruger affect regarding capabilities. There are many fools acting as place keepers and not staying flexible to respond the current changing scene. Most of their current backers from that generation share the same ignorance regarding the urgent need to have full capacity which is substantially reduced at this stage of life.!

Senators represent dirty money and nothing else. A fix and small number of senators by region (rich or poor, big or small) is the perfect recipe for corrupting democracy. The ancient roman senate is the model for modern day senates. Senators were owners of vast lands and their natural resources. Your states are like roman estates.
