As the first president of the U.S., Washington faced many challenges. It was clear from the start that America was going to be run in a different manner than places like England or France, so there was a matter of HOW would he rule. A precedent he set was when he stepped down, he essentially told the world that presidents would not be in control all their lives.
In the 19th century the government had little to do with the economy. They refused to control most businesses. They helped some with agriculture, and gave some financial support to companies building railroads. The federal reserve was founded in the early 19th century, but as the 20th century approached many more regulations were set in place. Large groups formed and this increased a large growth in the economy but the government had little to do with it.
