Perhaps I have read the Confederate Constitution and have read what plenty of authors on the subject have written about it....and they and I do not agree with your claims.
You still don’t seem to grasp that ports do not own the goods shipped into and out of them....and that they don’t pay the tariffs levied on foreign goods. THE single biggest port into which goods are shipped for both Wal-Mart and Target (and probably the dollar stores and others besides) is Long Beach, California. Long Beach does not own those goods and does not pay the tariff on them. The Northeast specialized in shipping from early on. The Southern states specialized in cash crops for export. Just because goods were shipped out of and into Northeastern ports - especially NY does not mean NY owned those goods or that NY paid the tariff. This isn’t rocket science for those who aren’t being deliberately obtuse.
Or perhaps not, given how you don't seem to know what it says.

And you don't seem to be able to answer one simple question; if the overwhelming majority of goods were destined for Southern consumers then why were the overwhelming majority of all goods landed in Northern ports?

Apparently it is since you can't answer the simple question. By your logic, all those goods landed in Long Beach are destined for eastern consumers and all the goods landed in New York and Boston are destined for western consumers. It makes zero sense, but making sense doesn't seem to be of interest to you.
