Answer:

B. Only by the federal government.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fiscal policy refers to alterations in federal taxes and spending which are regulated by the federal government and that are intended to accomplish macroeconomic policy goals. It began after the Great Depression, when the government was forced to intervene in macroeconomic conditions.
