Because the county with 10 feeds the city with a million, as an example. Now which is more important? The massive population, or the massive farmland with low population that allows the massive population to exist in the first place? (I’d say they’re equally important. The founding fathers would too, which is one reason why we’re a republic and not a democracy.)
Honest question: why not? It’s a similar philosophy to the question of, what is more important: the worker bees or the tycoon who hires and pays them?
IMO, neither can exist without the other; the cities can’t exist without the farmers, the cities make the equipment that allow the farmers to be more productive. It’s symbiotic, neither is more important than the other.
But there’s much more people in the city, why should a county with like 10 people carry the same weight as a city with a million

Yeah, very fair point. Idk though, I feel like they shouldn’t be the exact same though...

Sounds too communist to me. ‘Society can’t function without the binmen, pay them the same as doctors’.
The "why" should be quite obvious at this point. To limit the damage democracy can do.
