Answer (1)

Creating a national bank is considered an implied power of Congress, as it is not directly specified in the Constitution but is necessary for executing its designated responsibilities. This was established by the Supreme Court in the case of McCulloch v. Maryland. Other options like raising taxes and declaring war are explicitly stated powers. ;
