ISBN: 9781492893240 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9781503177154 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Constitution grants Congress the power to borrow money on the credit of the United States-one part of its power of the purse-and thus mandates that Congress exercise control over federal debt.

The accumulation of federal debt accelerated in the wake of the 2007-2008 financial crisis and subsequent recession. Rising debt levels, along with continued differences in views of fiscal policy, led to a...
