"No one here seems to have a problem with this." That is not true. A true statement is "Not enough people seems to have a problem with this." The American political system is setup so one vote is not equal so those with more voting power can win with fewer votes. I would argue that a majority care about these issues and would like to fix it, but the votes of the minority count more. Look at the US Senate and count the number of people each senator represents. The electoral college guarantees inequality in votes for the president.
