Prior to the protective tariff, many Americans preferred British goods due to their established reputation for quality and craftsmanship.

Additionally, the allure of imported goods was often associated with status and sophistication, leading consumers to favor British items over domestic alternatives. This preference posed challenges for American manufacturers who struggled to compete without government support.

What was Andrew Jackson's view of the tariff debate?

Andrew Jackson was a man not many people wanted to mess with. The tariff of 1828 also known as the tariff of abominations greatly affected the South because it was geared towards protecting the Norths industry based economy. John C. Calhoun who was a political rival of Jackson's was not at all in favor of the tariff. In fact, so much so that he threatened that South Carolina would secede if the tariff was not dismissed. However, Jackson countered this threat by threatening to send the army and hang him and use force to keep S.C from seceding.
