While these points are positive, the long term implications of a falling dollar are more serious. A declining dollar will eventually result in the following: Higher interest rates on government and consumer debt. Higher inflation due to a rise in the price of imports, and commodity prices increase since most are priced in terms of U.S. dollars.

Money can be anything that people accept as payment for goods and services. The five characteristics of useful money are: Portability, divisibility, stability, durability, and uniqueness. The money supply is the amount of money available for people to buy goods and services. It is important to manage the money supply, since too much money could cause inflation and too little money may cause deflation. To control the money supply the Federal Reserve can increase or decrease the reserve requirement, buy or sell government securities, or change the discount rate. The Federal Reserve is responsible for creating an environment that fosters stable prices and full employment. It attempts to manage these two goals with monetary policy. The Federal Reserve is also responsible for the clearing of checks.

Households have increased their use of online banking from approximately 8 million households to an estimated 51 million households in 2009. Leading the growth of online banking are California, Florida and Texas. Combined, these states made up more than 40 percent of the growth in online banking. Others in the top 10 for growth were Washington, Georgia, Arizona, North Carolina, Missouri, and Maryland. More than 71 percent of online banking customers report they are highly satisfied with their online banking experience. According to ComScore the adoption of online banking is rising at a rate of 13 percent each year. And by 2011, 76 million households will bank online compared with an estimated 51 million in 2009.
The Federal Reserve emerged after the banking crisis of 1907 and was organized originally to be a lender of last resort. After bank deregulation, the services offered by banks and S&Ls are now similar. They both offer many of the same services. Credit Unions are tax-exempt member-owned cooperatives that operate like banks. Consumer finance companies offer short-term loans to those who cannot meet the credit requirements of regular banks.

After the internet bubble of the late 1990s, the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates creating a situation in which mortgage rates were low thus fueling a housing boom. Banks relaxed their underwriting standards and created mortgage-backed securities and sold them to organizations throughout the world. The government did not regulate these transactions well and banks collapsed as housing values fell and individuals defaulted on their loans. The role of the FDIC is to insure bank deposits if a bank were to fail. Bank deposits are currently insured up to $250,000. Unlike a credit card a debit card functions as a check, withdrawing funds directly from a checking account. The debit card only allows you to spend money that is in your account; once the balance is zero the card cannot be used. If the card is used with a zero balance, it will result in overdrafts. The World Bank, also called the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, is responsible for financing economic development. The IMF was established to assist the smooth flow of money among nations. Nations must join the IMF and allow for flexible exchange rates, inform the IMF of changes in a country's monetary policy, and to modify policies on the advice of the IMF.
