Explanation:The Hartford Convention was a series of meetings from December 15, 1814 to January 5, 1815, in Hartford, Connecticut, United States, in which the New England Federalist Party met to discuss their grievances concerning the ongoing War of 1812 and the political problems arising from the federal government's increasing power.

This convention discussed removing the three-fifths compromise, which gave slave states disproportionate power in Congress,[citation needed] and requiring a two-thirds majority in Congress for the admission of new states, declarations of war, and creating laws restricting trade. The Federalists also discussed their grievances with the Louisiana Purchase and the Embargo of 1807. However, weeks after the convention's end, news of Major General Andrew Jackson's overwhelming victory in New Orleans swept over the Northeast, discrediting and disgracing the Federalists, resulting in their elimination as a major national political force.

The Federal Reserve Act of 2000 says that the Fed "shall maintain long run growth of the monetary and credit aggregates commensurate with the economy's long run potential to increase production.

Explanation:

The Act was created in 1913 and signed by the then ruling president as a way of establishing economic stability. This act introduced the central bank to oversee the state monetary policies. The law was established to set out the structure, purpose and function of the Reserve System.

Due to recession and other financial crisis prior to 1913, investors lacked trust in bank systems, therefore the act was passed to bridge the gap between citizens and the banking system. Over the years it has been amended by Congress to keep up with the changing financial times.

This type of self- esteem instability reflects the short-term fluctuations in a contextually based global self-esteem. This means that someone with unstable self-esteem will value it positively in one day, but negatively for the other, this can even vary with each situation. An important characteristic of individuals with unstable self-esteem is how they can react very strongly in the experiences that they consider relevant to their self-esteem, within this they can not even see relevance for their self-esteem when there is not. Unstable self-esteem can take many forms. Some people may experience dramatic changes from very positively to feel very negatively about themselves, others may fluctuate mainly in the degree to which they feel positively or negatively about themselves.
