   At 100,000,000 Californians, one for every 500,000 Californians... (perhaps   
   increase to 400 and 1 for every 250,000(?))]   
      
   If we were to have one California State Legislator for every 40,000 people, we   
   would have a 1,000 person State Assembly, which would be too many Assemblymen   
   in   
   my opinion.   
      
   If it gets to be too many constituents per either Assemblymember or Senator,   
   the   
   solution may be to have a cabinet of 10 men per Legislator, and the Legislator   
   to   
   be first among equals, or just first, - with all the cabinetmembers paid, and   
   regarded, nearly as the Legislator.   
      
   To compare, to other States, the number of seats in the lower houses of U.S.   
   State   
   Legislatures varies from a high of 400 in New Hampshire to a low of 40 in   
   Alaska.   
   The table below lists the 10 states with the highest and lowest populations and   
   the population per legislator. California has by far the largest population per   
   district, New Hampshire the lowest:

   The following chart from the National Conference of State Legislatures lists   
   them all:

   By comparison, the U.S. House of Representatives in Washington D.C. has 435   
   members, while the U.S. Senate is 100 Senators for 325,000,000 Americans   
   nationwide.  This is 1 per 747,426, and 1 per 3,250,000, respectively.   
      
   For comparison, the French Senate is 348, and the French National Assembly is   
   547:   
   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Parliament   
   The population of France is 65,000,000, (on 248,573 square miles).   
   This is 1 per 186,781, and 1 per 118,829, respectively.   
      
   The comparison, the British House of Commons is 650 Members, and the British   
   House   
   of Lords is 805 Lords:   
   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom   
   The population of the U.K is also 65,000,000 (on 93,628 square miles).   
   This is 1 per 100,000, and 1 per 80,745, respectively.   
      
   I'm not suggesting we imitate our European allies, just throwing that   
   comparison   
   out there.   
      
   The population of California is 40,000,000 (2018 est.), (on 163,696 square   
   miles).   
      
   Most of the 50 State Legislatures in The United States of America, are   
   deplorably   
   understaffed and underpaid.  The National Conference of State Legislatures   
   reveals   
   this clearly in the following webpage:   
      
   http://www.ncsl.org/research/about-state-legislatures/full-and-p   
   rt-time-legislatures.aspx   
      
   This is the true reason for the deplorable states of our Union.   
      
   If you scroll down and study the map and the pay, you will see how ridiculous   
   the   
   domestic governance of the United States is!  No one is doing *anything* for   
   us!   
   And yet we have the industrial capability to have a glorious country!   
      
   These Legislatures are forming the true Constitution of our country, the United   
   States, with their every statute.  The State is responsible for 90% of the law   
   enforcement and prisoners in each State.  And Governance!  How can we afford to   
   have "part time" legislatures without staff members?!  Without staff members!   
   Without State Legislatures, we have no country!   
      
   Without State Legislatures, we have no country!

   Read it and weep!

   Read it and weep!   
      
      
   Also, we are here to be lead and served, not ruled.  Everyone in office should   
   affirm they are a here to lead and serve, and not rule us. They are a here to   
   lead   
   us to the Truth, and serve the Truth, and nothing more nor less.  We as   
   citizens,   
   and as voters, are here to do the same.   
      
   And the state needs to replace socialized impoverishment - prison, with   
   socialized   
   enrichment - education,(etc.)   
      
   In no particular order:   
   1. Sanitation - Running Water, Sewage, Trash pickup - in all cities and towns   
   2. Transportation to a degree   
   3. Education - Community College, Undergrad, Graduate   
   4. Menial Food - Corn Grits, Wheat, Rice, & +/Milk (possibly chicken) for   
   Children   
   5. Health Care & Dental   
   6. Guaranteed Jobs at a minimum wage of 65% per capita GDP, cash paid daily.   
   7. Perhaps limited personal income to 4x-40x the minimum wage, above which all   
   must be saved for capital (all above $125,000-$1,250,000) with carry   
   forwards/carry backs.  Granted this might be a Federal, rather than a State   
   issue.
