Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that chart show a lowering of tariff rates contributing to the greatest expansion of economic activity in history?

Look at that...

Mmmm...

Tariffs rise dramatically, then suddenly THE GREAT DEPRESSION!!!!

Coincidentally, when they go back down...Great Depression over and "happy days are here again"!!!

Thanks form proving my point.
