When article writers like this begin to pull out all the opinions and concurrences and dissents and add up the five justices who ruled That the feds cannot punish states then I would believe . Until then, I am firm in my belief that the liberal justices that joined Roberts specifically did not not concur with “that states could not be punished.”
Show me the CARFAX.

The section of the opinion reining in Congress' ability to force state compliance, or to endure higher taxes, or to take an unreimbursed hit to local tax revenue, through the withholding of federal funds to comply with unfunded or underfunded mandates or just naked federal diktat, drew a 7-2 majority.
