Virtually every crime gun in the United States starts off as a legal firearm. Unlike narcotics or other contraband criminal arms trafficking is widespread in regions of political turmoil, it is not limited to such areas, for example, in South Asia, an estimated 63 million guns have been trafficked into India and Pakistan.
While illegal guns often pass through multiple trafficking channels, the report confirms that corrupt gun dealers and gun shows present challenges to enforcement. Although gun dealers were involved in less than 10 percent of the investigations, they were associated with the largest total number of diverted firearms (over 40,000 guns) and the highest average number of guns per investigation (350). Gun shows had the second highest number of trafficked guns per investigation (more than 130) and were associated with over 26,000 diverted guns.
A firearm is any type of gun designed to be readily carried and used by an individual. The term is legally defined further in different countries (see Legal definitions).

The first alternative is correct.
Political economy can often be conflicting.
The main instruments of economic policy are monetary policy and fiscal policy. Both can be used to stimulate or discourage the economy. In this way, when they are adopted with the opposite sign, they are an example of conflict, as described in this exercise.
If the government wants to stimulate the economy through increased spending (expansionary fiscal policy), it will be injecting money into the economy. However, the main cause of inflation is excess currency in circulation. Thus, a contractionary monetary policy aims to wipe out the supply of money to contain inflation. That is, the first measure is inflationary to stimulate the economy, but the second is anti-inflationary, however contractionary.
<em>"Suppose the government and the Federal Reserve have conflicting goals. The government wants to encourage economic growth by </em><em>increasing spending</em><em>, but the Federal Reserve wants to decrease inflation by </em><em>decreasing the money supply</em><em>".</em>
