Why don't you just disclose what you want to prove or disprove.

That the South did not pay the majority of the tariffs but in fact paid a small minority of the tariffs. Clear enough?

Maybe you have a diamond ring on your hand. It was mined in South Africa and sold to a New York diamond merchant who cut and sold it to someone who sold it to you.

The U.S. Government charges an import tax on the diamond, maybe 15%. Who paid that tariff?
