Did the south or north have tariffs?
After the Constitution established the United States as a single country, only the federal government could impose tariffs on goods imported from other countries, and the states could not impose tariffs on imports or exports from each other. This agreement was made in the Constitution since the North and the South felt very different about tariffs. A tariff is a tax on imported goods, and the cost of the tax was passed on by the importing merchant to the customers, so tariffs made it more expensive to buy imported merchandise (and if the tariffs were high, even allowed U.S. manufacturers to raise their prices). People were more likely to buy more goods manufactured in the U.S. because tariffs had raised the prices of imports. Most of the factories in the early years of the U.S. were in the North. Therefore, higher tariff rates were supported in the Northern states, whose factory owners and employment rate benefited, and opposed by the Southern states, who had to pay more expensive prices without any benefit to themselves.
