A. Because the constitution did not specifically say that the government had the right to establish a bank

Explanation:

The first bank of the united states was the bank which was charted to a private company by the US congress. Its establishment was supported by Alexander Hamilton who was the treasury secretary. The main purpose of founding the bank was to handle the debt caused by the revolutionary war and to create a standard currency. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison opposed the bank. They opposed it on the grounds of centralization of power, and the creation of a bank was considered to be for the benefit of North not for the agricultural south. Jefferson argued that the creation of the bank was the violation of the constitution.
