- "bill clinton ( the 42nd u.s. president, served in office from by low unemployment, declining crime rates and a budget surplus. during clinton's second term, the u.s. economy was healthy, unemployment was low and the nation experienced a major technology boom and the rise of the internet."

both are true, the congress does have the power to create banks, even if this power is not specifically described in the constitution, since there is nothing restricting it and there is power given to the congress to make "all laws which shall be necessary and proper". maryland was not allowed to tax a branch of the national bank operating there, and the supreme court decided that no state could. both of these topics were discussed in a decision of the mcculloch v. maryland case in 1819.
