Well it should surprise you that America is in fact a Republic, and not a democracy, also the whole point of having two houses in the legislature was so that smaller states would feel more equally represented than just having one house based off population, in which small states would have almost no voice whatsoever.

Is that what you guys say to justify things like California having as many senators as Wyoming, when the former has a population that's bigger by over 60 times? Why is a Californian's vote worth 1/60th of a Wyomingian's?

All states are granted 2 senators, thus the Senate has 100 members.  The House has 435 members, doled out based on a state's population, of which California has the largest share at 53 representatives.
