Questions 19-21 refer to the following quotation.“[W]e view with great concern, both nationally and individually, certain late attempts, on the part ofvarious descriptions of domestic manufacturers, to induce your honorable body to increase the dutiesupon imports, already so high as to amount, upon many articles, nearly to a prohibition. This increasedcost upon some of these may truly be designated a tax upon knowledge, if not a bounty to ignorance.…That, although these attempts are sustained under the plausible pretext of ‘promoting national industry,’they are calculated…to produce a tax highly impolitic in its nature, partial in its operation, and oppressivein its effects: a tax, in fact to be levied principally on the great body of agriculturists, who constitute alarge majority of the whole American people, and who are the chief consumers of all foreign imports.…itis the duty of every wise and just government to secure the consumers against both exorbitant profits andextravagant prices by leaving competition as free and open as possible.”Virginia Agricultural Society, Petition to the House of Representatives, 1820"Remonstrance against Increase of Duties on Imports," House of Representatives, January 17, 1820, no.570, 16th Cong., 1st sess.,American State Papers: Finance, 3:447–48.
