Why would individuals that benefitted from a broken system have any desire to fix it? You are suggesting an empty barn be locked while the horses are still on the road.
The US won't collapse and turn into three countries, one of which has your values to make you happy. The US will be subjugated and move farther along the path Canada is on, or the EU. This is all by design. Horse left the barn isn't a good analogy. More like they are going to level the barn and turn it into a strip mall. Don't let them build the strip mall just because you lost a horse.
Canada is an absolute wreck due to not having an electoral college. The needs and desires of citizens outside of Quebec and the Greater Toronto Area are completely ignored as there are too few representatives and therefore too great of political risk involved in catering to outliers. You do what you think is most effective, but the rest of the world is well aware that your democratic system failed you, exposing gun advocates for the poseurs many already knew them to be.
And guess what? They are working on eliminating the electoral college in the US.
