“The Secretary, from time to time as the work progresses, may make payments to a State for costs of construction incurred by the State on a project (including payments made pursuant to a long-term concession agreement, such as availability payments). Such payments may also be made for the value of the materials” (23 U.S. code § 121 – Payment to states for construction)
The Supreme Court ruled federal income as unconstitutional in 184. There was a 5-4 ruling in the Supreme Court, which determined that imposing taxes on the people was unfair. The court ordered the exercise to be restrained only to take place in emergency cases. The direct tax policy was put in place after the civil war and lasted for some years. The issue came up during the Pollock v. Farmers’ Loan & Trust Co., 157 U.S. 429 (1895).

Tennessee enacted the 863 public Act, which touched on 20 statutory provisions. The changes made on eminent domain laws in Tennessee are under several categories; “(1) establishing a clear legislative intent concerning when the government is permitted to use eminent domain; (2) defining certain elements of this area of law; (3) changing condemnation procedures; and (4) removing eminent domain power from certain agencies, subdivisions, and other groups.” In so doing, the State addressed even some obsolete parts of the law in Tennessee.

In 2007, the ELINA EASTWOOD v. the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (Case No. 2:06-CV-164) case ended up being a summary judgment. This happened because Ms. Eastwood was seeking dismissal of the claim. The court described the federal rule of summary judgment under the civil procedure. The court used 28 U.S.C. § 7426(a) to make the ruling. “In a wrongful levy action, the plaintiff must initially show that it has a legally cognizable interest in the property levied by the United States, and that the government levied on the property to collect someone else’s taxes. If the plaintiff makes that initial showing, the burden shifts to the government to establish, by substantial evidence, a “nexus” or “connection” between the taxpayer and the property levied upon. The ultimate burden of proof remains on the plaintiff.”

In this article, the writer discusses how lies made by politicians during campaigns cause harm to democracy. The lies are tempting, and many people believe those lies. These lies need to be regulated within the constitution since they intentionally misguide vulnerable persons within the society (Sellers, 2018).
