- HUH? WE SHOULD HAVE EQUAL NUMBER OF REPRESENTATIVES!
- The Virginia Plan. This will cause the federal government to be put into three branches. Executive, Judicial. and the Legislative branch. The legislative branch will be made up of two houses, bicameral. The state's population will determine the number of representatives in each house.
- I prefer the way it is. Choose representatives based on population!!
- The political power from the states will now be given to central government. Our survival will all depend on federalism!
- WE REJECT!
- The New Jersey plan will provide a strong unicameral, one house, legislature inwhich each state would have one vote! The federal government will have the power to tax and to regulate commerce-
- I, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, am proposing two-house legislature that would allow for both equal representation and representation based on population.
- Hmmm. This seems interesting.
- Now, Now, listen up! The Great Compromise. This will grant each state equal voice in the upper house. Lower house representation will be according to population.
- !!!!!!!
- There will also be something called the Three-Fifths Compromise. There's a lot to this one so listen! Now, three fifth of the states slave population will count in determining its representation!
- Oh!!!!
- OH MY!!!!!
- This again means they will be able to determine direct taxation!
- Hmmmmm.
