Question 16 • US History

What happened to the money in the Second National Bank after the bank was dissolved by President Jackson?

Answer
A
It was given to state banks.
B
It was returned to its owners.
C
It was lost in a recession.
D
It was given to common people.

Explanation

President Jackson withdrew federal deposits from the Second Bank and placed them in selected state banks, often called “pet banks.” So the money was transferred to state banks, rather than given directly to ordinary people or lost in a recession.
