It would not be a very good start to take out two vital buildings to your own economy. not very smart.
You seem to be of the notion that if it was an inside job, with americans involved instead of only foreigners, that they would never consider harming the american economy for their own interests. I have certainly found no evidence so support that claim. And seriously, if they were prepared to let thousands die, do we really think that the economy for your average american citizen was high on their minds?
Now, the the owner of the WTC buildings that collapsed, Larry Silverstein. And the military/oil industrial complex did handsomely indeed. And the tragedy conveniently occurred a day after Donald Rumsfeld had a few interesting things to say about military spending. 9/11 Research reports in its article "

Missing Trillions
Rumsfeld Buries Admission of Missing 2+ Trillion Dollars in 9/10/01 Press Conference
On September 10, 2001, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld held a press conference to disclose that over $2,000,000,000,000 in Pentagon funds could not be accounted for. Rumsfeld stated: "According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions." According to a report by the Inspector General, the Pentagon cannot account for 25 percent of what it spends. 1 2
Such a disclosure normally might have sparked a huge scandal. However, the commencement of the attack on New York City and Washington in the morning would assure that the story remained buried. To the trillions already missing from the coffers, an obedient Congress terrorized by anthrax attacks would add billions more in appropriations to fight the "War on Terror."
The Comptroller of the Pentagon at the time of the attack was Dov Zakheim, who was appointed in May of 2001. Before becoming the Pentagon's money-manager, he was an executive at System Planning Corporation, a defense contractor specializing in electronic warfare technologies including remote-controlled aircraft systems. 3 4 Zakheim is a member of the Project for a New American Century and participated in the creation of its 2000 position paper Rebuilding America's Defenses which called for "a New Pearl Harbor." 5
Estimates of the sums of money missing vary wildly. A 2003 report put the amount missing at "more than a trillion dollars." 6
