Why does the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 impact on America today?

I speak for all americans when I say it is heartbreaking to know what happened that day. We were attacked, and innocent lives were lost, firefights crushed along with the 2,606 people that had families, and airports will never be the same again. It made us stronger though. Its just another event, along with millions others, the earth has been collecting on its shoulders for as long as we know. My point is this effected everybody on earth. No other location of earth needs to have that happen again ... and it wont! Salute.

a. competition with other nations.

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.
