Tariffs and the American Saga: How Taxes Shaped a Nation

About this episode

A guided tour of US tariff history—from Hamilton's protective vision to the Smoot-Hawley collapse and the postwar shift toward free trade. We'll map who benefited, who paid, and how tariff policy lit up debates about independence, regional power, and national identity.
