I quit reading immediately.
The actual premise and history regarding tariffs is wrong.
Tariffs were the main revenue stream of governments at the time of foundation. Such was the nature of global commerce.
Other taxes didn't exist yet. Additionally none of those bulwarks of American history denied they raised prices and harmed consumers.
