I didn't get into sovereign immunity, but I was thinking it. They tried to force farmers to buy crop insurance or be disqualified for any other federal benefits, but it was unpopular and abandoned.
Plus, sovereign immunity. You can't sue a government for not using its sovereignty the way you'd prefer.
