create and collect new taxes.

This power is explicitly granted to Congress by Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution ("To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises..."). Establishing a national bank is an implied power (McCulloch v. Maryland), and the others are not expressed financial powers.
