False. The south was impacted negatively by tariffs. They had to pay higher prices on the goods they  couldn't produce in the region, and it also made trading cotton with Britain difficult for them.

False. The South did not want tariffs to protect it's industry. Tariffs helped the Northern industries and manufacturers but raised the prices of manufactured goods for the South.
