Low tariffs were generally preferred by merchants and consumers who benefited from lower prices on imported goods. This group often included industrialists and manufacturers who relied on imported raw materials and components for their production processes.

The differences in economic systems between North and South is a difference between a vast wage-based industrial complex and a vast slave-based agricultural complex. The industrial North favored high tariffs to protect American industries. The South favored low tariffs to sell cotton buy cheap goods overseas. Without slaves the large plantation system could not have existed.
