Bicameralism

The British Parliament was a bicameral government. The Americans in the colonies new the system of bicameralism well enough that all but two of the thirteen colonies started bicameralism. As years went on one of the two colonies that were unicameral changed to bicameral. The Framers were bicameral to solve conflict between plans. The states wanted equal voice in the congress and bicameralism takes after federalism. Federalism gave equal rights in the Senate and the House.

I think that it was a good thing that we have a bicameral government with the states being equally represented. So that the bigger states do not over power decision that will help or not help them. With having to houses it makes it unable for a single house to gain too much power and control over things.
