    wanted to impose a national speed limit and instead of enacting legislation they decided to threaten the states that failed to comply‚ by withholding federal road funds; I feel it should have been considered unlawful.

I believe that Congress did not simply enact a national speed limit because Congress wanted

    In "Barn Burning‚" and "A Rose for Emily" William Faulkner creates two characters that are strikingly similar. Abner Snopes is loud and obnoxious.

In order to satisfy our ending‚
