History of Money, Lecture 22, Pt. A: in 1811 the charter for the First Bank of the United States expired but the nation retained about a little more than one hundred state-chartered banks. In 1812-14, however, the country found itself at war with Great Britain, and the war required unprecedented borrowing. What remained was a mess of state bank notes that were no longer redeemable in coin. In 1816 the Congress chartered a Second Bank of the United States, out of the hope of restoring stability to the financial system. _______________________________________ If enjoy this channel and would like to support: https://patreon.com/professorbarth Follow me on X: https://twitter.com/Professor_Barth Buy my book!

History of Money, Lecture 22, Pt. B: in 1816-18 a bubble of banking, credit, paper money, and western land sales swept the young nation. By 1819 the bubble had burst, ushering in the first great US depression. It was also the context of the famous Supreme Court decision of Chief Justice John Marshall in the case McCulloch v. Maryland, in which Marshall declared the Second Bank of the United States to be constitutional. Included in this discussion is an in-depth look at malinvestment and corrections during the boom-bust cycle. _______________________________________ If enjoy this channel and would like to support: https://patreon.com/professorbarth Follow me on X: https://twitter.com/Professor_Barth Buy my book!
