Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The example of Alabama's constitutional authorization to indemnify peanut farmers for losses from fungus and freeze damage highlights the fact that many state constitutions deal with issues that would be more properly addressed by legislation, rather than being enshrined in a constitution. This suggests that state constitutions are not always the best tools for addressing the actual needs of individuals, and that more flexible legislative approaches may be more suitable in some cases. The example does not suggest that state constitutions are necessarily more tailored to individual needs than the U.S. Constitution, that the process for amending the U.S. Constitution should be relaxed, that farmers' interests are not addressed in the U.S. Constitution, or that southern states have the most bizarre constitutional amendments.
