Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thorough analysis of debates and legal proceedings surrounding the Bank of the United States, formed in 1816, and the question of whether states could tax the bank as a private organization. The author examines the arguments put forward by both sides, drawing on debates in the Ohio legislature and the Ohio Circuit Court. The book explores the broader implications of the case, particularly regarding federal power and the relationship between federal and state governments. It delves into the nature of corporations, the taxing power of states, and the concept of supremacy in the context of the federal system. The author argues that the outcome of the case had significant consequences for the balance of power between the federal government and the states, and raises important questions about the scope of federal authority.
