I was thinking about this recently, but it's actually shocking that our country isn't already far more gerrymandered than it is. Because there are very few laws against gerrymandering, and so, since the average politician has no conscience, there's really nothing stopping them from gerrymandering as much as possible.

That's the current rules we're playing with.

To use a sports analogy, it's like in basketball, everybody knows that fouling the winning team at the last minute can be a way to catch up, especially if the person being fouled is bad at free throws. So that's why the losing team always starts fouling at the end of a close game, even though it seems like a sort of a cheap tactic.

But in the case of gerrymandering, it's like everybody knows fouling is the way to win, and almost nobody is actually doing it. It's hard to imagine.

And to continue the basketball analogy, if you wanted them to stop fouling at the end of the game, you could fix it by changing the rules for the next season. You can't just rely on the goodwill of the teams to stop doing it. Similarly, we can fix gerrymandering through either federal laws or constitutional amendments.

Try $10 million

Why 200mil specifically?

It should be a multiple of minimum wage. Also we should have a maximum wage as a multiple of minimum wage. Tying them together will give the rich some incentive to raise the minimum wage
