Eisenhower's Federal interstates stomped all over states rights.

The President also felt that the newer, multi-lane highways were essential to a strong national defense.

That what that bastard wanted you to think! Why the secrecy?

See!

(extreme sarcasm off)

I have no idea. Would you care to speculate or offer an opinion as to why there was so much secrecy?

There were hearings on what became known as the Interstate Highway System in the 1930s and 1940s.

It was in the bag by the time Eisenhower came along as President.
