Question

Analyze new monetary policy actions undertaken by the U.S. government from 2000 - 2010 by describing their intended effects, using macroeconomic principles to explain the actions.

•You should specifically state what the intent of the actions were - for instance, the Fed may have used expansionary policy to help expand the economy in response to a recession. Such policies could have been buying up government bonds - this puts money into the economy since the Fed is buying these bonds from a bank and then the bank can use that money in the economy. This open-market operation increases the money supply.

Then, use our macroeconomic principles and models (like the Supply and Demand of Money model, AD-AS model to show the impact of interest rates on equilibrium GDP, Phillips Curve, etc.) to explain why the action would lead to the outcome desired by the government.

please relate the answer to 2000-2010 and please add a reference, thank you so much!
