The Tariff of Abominations a history sci-fi theater
In the last episode of history sci-fi theater, the north had come to love tariffs because they made people buy more American manufactured goods. While the south hated tariffs because they hurt trade with Europe. And now this week's episode. In the dock recesses of his underground laboratory, doctor regional division, transmogrified north south tensions into the tariff of abominations. Southerners fear the tariff. Known for your love.
In a ruin our economy. While northerners don't mind it at all. It's kind of cute, really. What a sweetie. Andrew Jackson's vice president John C Calhoun of South Carolina says the south has the right to secede or withdraw from the union. Either that thing goes, or we go. What president Jackson isn't having it. You'll stay in the union, whether you like it or not. We are not, will, too. Then lock up that monster. By 1832, there were no even bigger tourists, and the country was on the brink of Civil War.
When Jackson and Calhoun brought in respected statesman Henry Clay, who had previously developed the Missouri compromise of 1820, to tame the beast. I'll save the day. Unity is more important than tariffs. And so a compromise was reached. Northern has accepted lower tariffs and southerners remained in the union. Henry Clay had once again defeated the evil, doctor regional division. Or had he?
