The Australian Legislative Council

He hated the idea of australian being a federation, with states having separate local governments that sent members of congress to a central government. But he knows an elected legislature is inevitable, so he switches it up. He argued men who paid more taxes should get more representation, for sure, but not sydney merchants, right? Because they didn't actually produce anything. And sydney had really nothing to represent except a large mass of people - and look at that water beacha. Te wherever the principle of universal suffrage has prevailed, it has been the signal for massacre and bloodshed.
