1. Oliver shows a third-person point of view to narrate his story about what was happening in the colonies. He does not put himself as participating in situations, but as someone who had a panoramic view and what was happening, being able to quote these events based on that view.
2. Oliver was telling about the increasing taxation of the English government on products produced in the colonies. He shows how it hurt smugglers and encouraged smuggling products to be offered, sold and bought as a way to overcome unfair taxation. It also shows that there was a smugglers' union to take a stand against this government attitude.
3. Oliver uses the phrase "This Act was not more unreasonable than many other Acts which had been submitted to for Many Years past" to show that this was not the first time that the government had imposed an unjust tax on the colonies. With this he reinforces the argument that justifies the action of smugglers / traders to act against the government.
By and large, the market likes stable leadership at the Federal Reserve. So, a President usually can keep the Fed Chair in place which allows for a healthier economy.
