If the State is the sole beneficiary of the federal funding and the sole target of the federal limitations, it would have to try to block the implementation of those regulations. Yet in the words of the U.S. Supreme Court, the financial inducement of the government will have to be "so oppressive as to reach the threshold at which coercion is compulsion". Or in other words, we can say that, If the state had been the primary recipient of the federal funds and the immediate target to federal restrictions, it may have been able to sue for preventing their compliance. Yet, in the terms of the U.S. Supreme Court, the government's cash reward can not be 'so oppressive that the leverage is coercion.'
