Tariff Artists Statement-Oliver A.-Deborahs Class



This is a picture of imported and exported goods to and from Europe. Also NAFTA on the left. The ongoing arrows are pointed to Canada, Mexico and US for NAFTA. NAFTA is a fairly new agreement that lets the three countries trade without a tariff. The ongoing back and fourth between the South and Europe and the North and Europe explains how they imported and exported goods. On the arrows are ships that are exporting and importing goods. The North and South flags are exporting goods to Europe and the European flag is exporting goods to the North and South. For NAFTA there are packages that say no tariff. The significance of  this quilt piece is to show that tariffs meant a lot to the war, that is one of the reasons it happened. Tariffs were protective to countries interests and revenue, so without them their goods would not be as safe.
