Joseph Wolfson

Article Abstract:

Joseph Wolfson was a surfer who died at the age of 50-years-old. He worked for Carson City and ran surfing classes among his activities. He used a bodyboard which is a type of surf board designed for children. He discovered that he had an inoperable timor, gave away money to people in need, and attempted suicide, but was discovered, unconscious, on his surf board and rescued. He lived for a further 15 months, and then died in a car crash. He was sent letters of encouragement from a number of his former students.

The role of the Treasury

Article Abstract:

The United Kingdom Treasury has historically taken the role of finance ministry, giving out funds for public services, and influencing policy through this power. The modern role of the Treasury in amanging the economy was only taken on after governments decided to be more interventionist. The Treasury has cooperated with the Bank of England in areas such as exchange rate policy. The bank of England decides on interest rates, and this means that they are no longer seen to be affected by political considerations.
