This is a growing problem, and one that will only go away when the balance shifts so dramatically urban that the remaining rural enclaves will be overwhelmed. Then, the Constitution will change, but not before.
Perhaps we will get a constitutional convention at the 4T - 1T cusp, long after the regeneracy, after a crisis period has provided lots of trial and error solutions for today's problems. The US Constitutional changes and the UN came at such times. We will see...
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
