Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that "Under the US structure and operation of government each state can make, enforce and intrepret its own laws even if the laws are inconsistent with another state's laws or federal law" is false.

Even though state governments have the right to prescribe certain policy on education, taxation, commerce etc, it should be noted that such laws should not contradict the federal laws.

According to the Constitution of the United States, the federal law is being regarded as the supreme law and no.other state can contradict what it says.
