There are two schools of thought in economics. One is Keynesian. In this school of thought, economists believe the government has
an active role in stimulating a poor economy with infusions of money from the government

The other is Monetarist. In this school of thought, economists believe that by controlling the amount of money available to everyone, and hence controlling the interest rates on loans, a poor economy will take care of itself and recover.

While you are not expected to be an expert on either idea, which do you think is a
better approach to rescuing a poor economy?

In other words, would you prefer that the government send out checks to every American to boost spending?

Or would you prefer that the Federal Reserve reduce interest rates so that it is easier for people to get home and auto loans?

thank you!
