The correct answer is B. Contractionary fiscal policy is used to decrease the amount of money in the economy.

Explanation:

The contractive fiscal policy is a type of fiscal policy in which there is room for reducing public spending and increasing tax revenue through tax revenues of citizens. That is, it is the opposite option to expansive fiscal policy.

Through contractionary fiscal policies, states obtain higher collections in terms of taxes compared to public spending, so it is said that the budget deficit decreases. On the other hand, the reduction of expenditure and the increase of taxes can be measures that are taken together or not. Generally the contractive policy is usually generated by a combination of both.

The contractive fiscal policy is used in periods of time in which it is sought to stop the growth of aggregate demand, for example in times of economic boom as a way of controlling inflation.  For this, it seeks to reduce business investment or consumption through the rise in taxes that make citizens have less money in their pockets.

angel island immigration station was an immigration station located in san francisco bay which worked from 1910 to 1940. the majority of immigrants that got there were from the asian hemisphere, specifically from china, japan, russia, and south asia, being china the country from where more people arrived.

the number of foreigners arriving at it took the attention of americans who feared the new arrivals would take their jobs. the work opportunities were not abundant due to the economic comedown of 1870 and the asians, as newcomers, were willing to work for cheaper wages. soon they started to be seen as a threat, which led to an increased discrimination against the chinese - the biggest ethnicity arrived at this station until 1915 when japanese immigrants outnumbered them - being considered as unsuitable americans hence their looks and social situation.

at the station, the immigrant's detention may vary depending on how long the interrogation process took: it could be weeks, months, or even years.

finally, in 1940 an explosion destroyed administration building located on the island, so the united states government decided to stop the process.
