The Federal Reserve (the Fed) is the central banking system of the United States. One of it functions is to manage the nation's money supply through monetary policy in order to maintain the stability of the financial system and the economy.

The Fed had the power<em> to increase the money supply</em>. If the Fed believes that the economy is operating well below its potential level of output, the money supply is <em>increased in order to stimulate the output and employment</em>. Output is the quantity of services and goods produced.

To increase the money supply means that people will have <em>more or excess</em> <em>money</em> to spend. Consumption will <em>increase</em>, people will demand more goods and services. Some may want to deposit the excess money in banks making the bank's excess reserves richer ( banks will own more money). If the banks own more money, they are willing to lend more. Banks will<em> lower</em> <em>interests rates</em> to motivate borrowing.

As the result of increased consumption and investment ( more money available, lower interests rates ) the country's<em> GDP will increase</em>. GDP is the market value of all the goods and services produced in the USA during a specific time.

What caused the demise of the Federalists?
Bad White [126]

There are so many factors that caused their decline, but I would say the main one would be the presidency of John Adams. John Adams made some major mistakes such as enacting the Alien and Sedition Acts, which basically took away the freedom of speech. This for sure made many people upset. Since John Adams was connected to the Federalist party, their reputation would tank. Soon, events like Alexander Hamilton's death, the Louisiana Purchase, and Hartford Convention made them die out.
