Irrelevant. A tariff that "indirectly" kills off trade still kills off trade.
Now you are finally agreeing with me that the first tariff was a revenue tariff after arguing with hundreds of words on other threads that it was an example of protectionism.
Wrong as usual. The 1789 tariff act PREDATED Hamilton's protectionist Report on Manufacturers of 1791. The 1792 tariff was the first to implement part of Hamilton's plan and, as I showed you, the southern opposition to it was solid.
Tariffs killed off little if any exports from the North.
Hamilton was SecTreas by 1789 and was an important part of formulating financial policy from the being. His Report was not adopted.
