Could you add more information regarding the below statement? "The Federal Reserve System plays a massive role in not only the economy of the united states but alos in the global economy. The US dollar is one of the most popular and well recognized forms of currency all around the world, making it the basis for many financial transactions and trades. This popularity and standardization in regards to the dollar makes it one of if not the most important currency in the world, whose value has implications on nearly every aspect of trade, consumers, and even other countries wellbeing. Because of this, the fed, who has the ability to influence the value of the dollar and the economy, is likely the most important financial institution of the world, because of it's ability to severely impact both positively and negatively the united states economy and the world economy. With the recent inflation, I do think that the fed should take some action to mitigate the risk of any catastrophic decreases in value due to the rapid influx of money. It is the fed's responsibility to maintain the dollar, its use, and its value and with the global concern about inflation, I think that it is their duty to do something to help calm and reassure the dollar's stability."
