The current Constitution tried to settle the matter with customs and tariffs, but that didn’t work out so well and ended in two little dust ups: the War Between the States and the 16th Amendment. Both were abominations.

Complete horse sh!t. The USA became a world class economic power and industrial power house behind really steep import tariffs.....

Well, some import tariffs weren’t so popular.

Depends on whose ox is being gored.
