    If I remember my civics class lessons, a long time ago, so please correct me if I'm wrong. The senate was two members from each state, so as to balance the power between small and large states. Somehow it was decided that the number of house seats would be determined by states population (based on the census every ten years). This mumble jumbo would balance the power? One of the many arguments, of not having term limits for congress is this gives small states and their elected representatives the ability to retain and hold powerful chairperson positions in the various committees. I personally believe this is "ripe" for political corruption to happen. I don't think senate or congress seats were ever supposed to be used as positions of power for life of a chosen few. Term limits should be utilized for all elected officials at the local, state and federal level. As new and "young blood" have fresh approaches to old problems.



    Yes Ben invented the airplane, those brothers from Dayton, Ohio invented the jet plane, and Edison the rocket ship (I think).
