How often do you hear someone say that they're a hide inspector for a living? I would say about NEVER. That's probably because such a position no longer exists in our community today. So let me start by asking you, "Why is it so significant that it must remain in our Texas Constitution?" Don't feel you're alone because I can't quite understand why either.
The Texas Constitution, along with the U.S. Constitution, is supposed to reflect our current society today. So why is it we only constantly add and not concerned about removing what is no longer needed or useful? Our Constitution needs to be put in a way where the entire public is able to at least grasp the broad idea. I feel there are so many citizens who refuse to learn about our Constitution because it's so confusing. I don't blame them at all. We keep a bunch of old, nonsense in there making it extremely difficult to take in necessary information. I personally think our Constitution looks way too messy and needs someone to eliminate as much of out-dated information as possible. As Heflin had stated in the article, "That's all this is, housecleaning."
Heflin also stated that, "As long as the position is listed in the Constitution, someone can sign up and run for it." It's strange that the position is still made available when it was replaced by the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Associations a long time ago.
What I'm, and the article, is trying to get at is by voting "yes" to Proposition 10 on Nov. 6th, it's the beginning to starting somewhere. Let's take a step and better our government together.
Feel free to peep in on the details:
