Tariffs are defined as being taxes that are paid on imported goods. It was the southern states of the country that tended to oppose these tariffs. This is because they depended on many products that were imported from other areas of the country for their livelihood. However, while the southern states were the major suppliers of cotton and other such products they would have spent out more on tariffs than they received back.
