The protective tariff put a tax on imported goods to protect goods made in the United States. The tariff is good for industry!!!!!!!!
THIS TAX IS UNFAIR TO THE SOUTHERN STATES WE IMPORT GOODS AND IT MAKES THOSE GOODS MORE EXPENSIVE
States have a right to not follow a federal law. States have a right to nullify, or cancel, this tariff. The tariff hurts the southern economy! We will secede from the Union!
I will force the south to obey the tariff. The Union must come first. The Union must be preserved!
I think we need a compromise. We will lower the tariff and we will approve the Force Bill.
“Did you hear that? They lowered the tariff. The South wins!”
“Did you hear that? I can now use the US Military to enforce acts of congress, I won!”
