South Carolina is under obligation to pay those tariffs. Lincoln is under a constitiutional obligation to see that they are paid. Those S.C. waters are U.S. waters!

The most significant thing you said was "South Carolina." I lost interest after that.

Based on your posts, it is no surprise that you support a Union of force rather than the voluntary Union it started out as. What's next, a run on my bank account?

If it was such a loose confederation, then could all the other states secede from one?

Or was it only the minority that got to control the majority?
