No it doesn’t. Not even close. Weak example. Sorry.

Probative case, sorry. You lose.

The differences leading to the Nullification Crisis were economic and financial and outlined the naked desire of the Northern business class to enrich itself using government policy at the expense of the rest of society.

Open and shut.

The Northern Millocracy and their banker and merchant allies wanted to eat out the substance of the whole country, and the South objected. That is the whole argument, and it prefigures the Civil War perfectly and shows the "slavery" issue to have been a false one picked up and used by the same Northern business interests 30 years later as a wedge issue to split the West from the South, and engage a mindless, predatory "crusade" against the South.
