Part of me is starting to wonder if some people even know why we have both a House and Senate.

I don't look at this as the smaller states passing legislation to take advantage of the larger states since they have an equal size as someone suggested, rather I look at it as the smaller states being able to protect themselves from legislation to take advantage of them by the larger states. I've looked at the measure of a good session of congress as not at how many good bills pass but how few bad bills pass. (Needless to say I don't remember the last good session of congress.)
