In the past the US manufactured most of the products used by Americans now many of these are imported from other countries what is one reason for this change?
Probably the most important reason is the cost of labor. American laborers earn much more than workers in Third World countries so goods manufactured there can be made cheaper and sold to us cheaper. Another contributing factor is the improvement in communication and transportation. Goods from outside the US can often get to US markers as fast as goods made here.

Why did southerners oppose the tariff of 1828?
The tariff was a tax on imported manufactured goods. This raised the price of imported products and made it easier for US manufacturers to compete. Very few of these manufacturers were in the South, so all the tariff did for southerners was to raise their cost of living by making them pay higher prices for the things they needed. The tariff was in essence a tax on them to subsidize northern industry.
