Need or want?

New Zealand got rid of their second chamber in 1951 and don't seem to
have sunk yet. Among the many other unicameral States are Denmark and
Sweden. And of course Scotland passes a fair bit of legislation with
just one chamber.


The scottish "parliament" is just a souped up county council. It doesn't make
any critical decisions that might need to be investigated further.
