Without 9/11, I doubt the Republicans could have mustered the political capital necessary for the massive increases in defense spending and there would have been no move for the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. And while the tax cuts for the richest Americans would still have passed, they could have been revoked after Bush was defeated in 2004.
The end result is that the treasury would be in much better shape in regards to deficit spending. This, in turn, means that the dollar would be stronger, oil cheaper and the economy in generally better shape.
