    The senate exists to maintain an artificial balance

    What do you mean by “artifical balance”?

    and make sure that only the approved things are actually voted on

    What do you mean, exactly? Bills are debated as they are presented [See 7.6 and 8.1 of the Senate Manual].

    That is why popular things like marijuana legalization are never voted on.

    I don’t understand this point. If you want a senator to introduce a bill regarding the legalization of marijuana, then vote in a senator that will present such a bill.

      Yup, you don’t.

      then vote in a senator that will present such a bill.

        Yup, you don’t.

        Okay, well, would you mind providing clarification/context/sources for your claim?

        🤡

        ? Do you disagree with that statement? If so, then why?
