Let’s Begin…
The value of money is determined by how much (or how little) of it is in
circulation. But who makes that decision, and how does their choice
affect the economy at large? Doug Levinson takes a trip into the United States Federal
Reserve, examining how the people who work there aim to balance the
value of the dollar to prevent inflation or deflation.
