Why isn't the 10th Amendment stopping the collapse of state governments?

[Union Yes]

The Federal Government has stopped the collapse of states with aid to states from The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, education funding, highway funding etc.

But said aid has proven just a band-aid to most states' budget deficits. Temporarily, propping up said states.

Every state that has extended its hand to Uncle Sam for funding gave away their 'sovereignty' on that day.

Rick Perry and Tim Pawlenty love federal government state bail-out cash.

Rick Perry's Texas, where everything is bigger. Including Texas' massive budget deficit, and Risk Perry's "request" to the federal government to further bail-out his state out of the financial/fiscal hole that Perry and his 'sovereignty' dug.

Why does state sovereignty cost the federal government so much money?

Why is the state system failing in America? Why isn't the 10th Amendment preventing this?

States lose their sovereignty the moment they accept money from the Federal Government.

1. Napoleon Bonaparte Quote

"When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain."

-

Of course, since the federal government has no money to give, they must first borrow their intended charity to the states from those same bankers.

Rinse and repeat.

to pay for the bailout,

of those very same banks.

3. The part of that that's so unbelievable

is that we've been warned so many times by those who've gone before us and were trampled under a cart load of borrowed "money".

4. Pawlenty screwed MN to Hades and back and now

when he is leaving he is trying to mess it up more. He won't run again because he knows damn well he would loose in a landslide and he doesn't want that on his resume. HE is so damn stupid he thinks he has a chance to be president. Ha ha

5. Complete with an I-35 bridge collapse on his resume.
