What is a TARIFF?
TAX the government puts on IMPORTED
GOODS (from other countries)
WITHOUT a tariff:
• British Cloth: $20 a yard
(Better Quality, Been Producing Longer)
• American Cloth: $25 a yard
WITH a tariff:
• British Cloth: $20 a yard + $10 tariff = $30
• American Cloth (no tariff) = $25 a yard
TARIFFS make the government revenue since they are
taxes
TARIFFS also make American products cheaper  more $
spent in the U.S. and more jobs for citizens
Tariff of 1828 Simulation

• Northern Factory Owner

Opinion of Tariffs (taxes on
imports)?
• Northern Opinion:
• Favored tariffs because they made imported,
foreign goods more expensive
• Forced Americans to buy cheaper U.S. products,
which made the North money
• Southern Opinion:
• Opposed tariffs because they made manufactured
goods more expensive
• The South felt that tariffs only helped the North and
hurt them

Increasing
Sectionalism
• 1820’s and 30’s- Nationalism was replaced by
sectionalism
• Loyalty to ones state or region over the country
• During this time Congress was arguing over tariffs and
their effects on the country
• North liked it b/c it made their goods cheaper
• South didn’t b/c they depended on foreign trade
• Congress passed the largest tariff yet in 1828 to help the
growth of manufacturing
Nullification
• Tariff of Abominations (1828)- tariff that raised the price of
imported factory goods by the largest amount yet
• Northern factory owners favored the new law since it
encouraged people to buy their goods
Nullification
• Southerners opposed it for several reasons:
1.
2.
Tariffs raised the price they paid for factory goods
High tariffs kept foreign countries from trading with the U.S.
because it was more expensive
• Hurt cotton sales for the South
3.
Believed the a law that favored one section was unconstitutional
• Calhoun, Vice President at the time, brought up
idea of nullification- states can nullify a law if they
see it as unconstitutional
South Carolina
Threatens to Secede
• Tariff brought up the issue of state vs. national government
again
• Webster-Hayne Debates: 1830 Senate debate over the doctrine
of nullification
• South Carolina threatened to secede
• Jackson was prepared to use military force to keep them in the
union
• Henry Clay created a compromise bill that gradually lowered the
tariff until 1842
• Both sides called a truce for the time
Who Would’ve Said…
• “I am so glad Jackson won the election! Finally,
someone is in office who supports the majority.”
• Western Farmer OR Northern Factory Owner
• “The spoils system is completely ridiculous! What is
Jackson trying to do, fill our government with
uneducated fools?”
• National Republicans OR Democrats
• “Thank goodness for this new tariff. My profits have
doubled since last year.”
• New England Factory Owner OR Southern Farmer
