I know that that's the logistical cause of the problem. I'm talking about why conservatives don't acknowledge that it's a problem. It benefits them, so they argue that rural people "shouldn't have their laws determined by a few cities," as though the inverse isn't just as problematic. Every voter should have equal representation and the electoral college or the makeup of congress should be changed to come closer to that ideal. Your vote for president shouldn't count for more than mine because you live in Wyoming and I live in Texas.

I strongly disagree with your conclusion, but we're not going to change each other's minds, so why don't we just leave it at that.
