Explanation:
This case surrounded the situation where Maryland attempted to tax the federal banks within the state. Maryland argued that the state was allowed to tax any institutions within their borders. McCulloch refused to pay these taxes and the case went to the Supreme Court. The court, headed by Marshall, ruled in favor of McCulloch.
Marshall stated, "That the power to tax involves the power to destroy. If the states may tax one instrument, employed by the [federal] government in the execution of its powers, they may tax any and every other instrument." This shows how Marshall and the other Justices disagreed with Maryland.
