It's probably best explained through some examples:1) A father has the power of the purse over his son (i.e. an allowance);2) Congress has the power of the purse over the Army (It approves the budget);3) Your boss has the power of the purse over you (You do what he says and you get a paycheck; don't do what he says and no paycheck.)4) Regarding highways, the Federal government has the power of the purse over the states (The Feds control highway funding to the states. That's why even though the Feds have no authority to set speed limits or the drinking age, these things are always set where the Feds want them. They just say, "Hey, we're not going to make you set the drinking age at 21, but if you don't we won't give you any money to build and fix your roads.)
