The first issue over tariffs goes back to the Founding of our country. The 3/5 Compromise and Fugitive Slav Clause were created in response to the issue over tariffs. North wanted them and the South didn't and slavery had the opposite with the South in favor and North against. The North gained a tariff and south was able to keep slavery.
