Is the state paying for it in full? No?

Tell me about the Eisenhower Interstate System.

Can California tell the Feds that they aren’t allowed to use the Interstate highways in their state anymore?

In what way is this comparable to a literal contract they have with fedgov?

they can threaten to stop funding them, like the Feds did with the drinking age.

I mean:

quote:

When the program took shape in the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, it differed in some ways from the President's proposal, particularly with regard to the source of funding for the program, but Congress retained the Federal-State matching share of 90-10 as a reflection of the Interstate Construction Program's importance to national goals. (In the western States with large amounts of untaxed public land, the Federal share could be increased to 95 percent.)


someone is agreeing to pay the other 5-10%…no?

That's not a contract. That's a perpetual federal program.

True.

The Feds pay 90-95% of the cost, which does give them quite a bit of leverage.

So who is paying that 5-10%?

The answer has no relevance to a discussion of what OP is about.

It's a bad example/comparison. That's the point.

So not having punctuation at the end of a sentence is grammatically correct in your mind?



ETA - the above Charlie Murphy gif is most appropriate for your clown takes.

when arguments devolve into grammar gotchas, you know you've made your point.

Do people ever agree to disagree around here?

I mean, SFP attempted to do that, but incorrectly applied it.

Oh! Well let's just call off the deportations then folks.

We can't go on without the Glendale pussies that can't accept that 80% of Americans WANT this.

So you are saying that this is a one way contract that you will agree to and thus sign.

The idea of a contract is that you are free to reject it or accept it. Hell, you can even break it.....with penalty.

Wrong. You started it and embarrassed yourself.

Now you're projecting, as usual.
