As the confidence in the banking system began to erode, people began to make runs and withdrawing all their money leaving the banks empty and foreclosing many of the smaller rural banks. Banks continued to close despite the government's best efforts, as a result, President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s (FDR) instituted the banking holiday on 6 March 1933: closing all the banks preventing people from withdrawing all their assets, foreclosing, even more, banks and making the situation worse. When the banks closed FDR started to initiate a plan to inform the American people about how the banks worked, what they do with the money, and how he and the government are going to solve the issue.
The FDIC was created in 1933 in response to the thousands of bank failures that occurred in the 1920s and early 1930s. The FDIC was a provision of the Glass-Steagall Act. During the nine year period from 1921-1929 more than 600 banks failed each year. The failed banks were small banks operating in the rural suburban areas and held the deposits of mostly farmers and blue collar folks. When banks fold and continue to do so, people will start to worry about their money in any bank.
In 1863 a National Bank Act was created. It was created in order to design a national banking system, send out war loans, and establish a national currency that was available to all the people.

The South struggled with finding financial support throughout the war. Tax programs were recently not put into effect, leaving them lost.

Columnist Scott Gilmore brings to light the operations of payday loan companies and the impact that they have on society. Although the payday loan companies seem to take advantage of the financially vulnerable members of society, perhaps the true fault lies within the education of society. A devastatingly large portion of society seeks out payday loans, and the results are appalling. As mentioned by Gilmore in the article, “[A correlation was found] between the number of payday lenders in a neighborhood and premature mortality”.
