Description

'A Short Tariff History of the United States, from the Earliest to the Present Time' by David Hastings Mason delves into the historical context and interpretation of the Constitution regarding the power to protect home industry through tariffs on imports. It explores the intentions of the founders, such as Daniel Webster and Rufus Choate, in including this power in the Constitution. The book highlights the importance of this power in developing and enriching the nation, as well as the necessity of its active and wise administration by Congress. The historical evidence presented strongly supports the idea that a protective tariff aligns with the original intent of the Constitution, while a tariff for revenue only may be considered unconstitutional. The book emphasizes the significance of upholding the right to protection as intended by the framers of the Constitution.
