It was bound to happen...

You're missing my point. The details of the "agreement" should have been made BEFORE the stimulus was voted for. Once the fed has the money, it can be used to twist arms. Conditions like the ones the Federal government demanded of states should never have happened to begin with. Regardless of whether or not the state agreed to the terms, the very act that there were terms on such a detailed level is a breach of trust, IMO.
