詹姆斯.麦迪逊总统对1817年《红利法案》的否决与美国早期宪政和交通革命关系重大。麦迪逊总统之所以否决《红利法案》,乃是因为他认为由联邦政府主持全国交通建设超出了美国宪法授予联邦政府的权力范围,并且他反对国会中众多议员对宪法的“宽泛解释”。该否决阻碍了联邦政府在美国早期交通建设中发挥积极的主导作用,最终由各州和地方政府以及私人企业在19世纪上半期蓬勃兴起的交通革命中担当了主要角色。
President James Madison’s veto over the 1817 Bonus Bill has a significant bearing on the early constitutional and traffic revolution in the United States. The reason Madison defeated the “Bonus Bill” is because he believes that the federal government presides over the construction of the national transportation beyond the scope of the power conferred on the federal government by the U.S. Constitution and opposes “broad interpretation” of the Constitution by many lawmakers in the National Assembly. . The veto prevented the federal government from playing an active leading role in the early U.S. transportation construction, culminating in the state and local governments as well as the private sector that played a major role in the revitalized traffic revolution during the first half of the nineteenth century.
