During his presidency, Benjamin Harrison called for higher tariffs, causing a major surplus. He supported giving pensions to Civil War veterans, and he signed in the McKinley tariff, which caused an even higher surplus. Well before the end of his administration, however, the surplus turned into a defecit, leading to the Panic of 1893.
