What if the September 11 attacks had never happened in the U.S.? Would it have saved almost 3000 people’s lives and the numerous billion dollars in America?

Nevertheless, since I have not finished my studies, I must step back at the beginning to study at the age of 25. In fact, at that age, it would be impossible for me to major medicine since it requires long-time learning to be done.
