Debs

Role of Government Under Wilson the Federal Reserve System was created. It was overseen by a board appointed by the president and controlled interest rates, issued currency, and helped prevent them from failing The Federal Trade Commission was also created during this time intended to investigate and prevent monopolies and unfair business practices
