Nice analogy! You are ignoring the elites problem, though. You'll need such large legislative districts the closer to the land common folk are, the less they'll be heard in the federal capital. Once the government is centralized, you're telling me that the representatives of all the people (327 million today) will be able to fit under one roof and make decisions that are best for everyone. Nay. They do what's in the best interests of those who can afford into the club.
