Polks Tariff Reform Speech on Taxation and Treasury
Polk argues for a just tariff system based on ad valorem duties to fund government, reduce burdens on laborers, and extend protections to all domestic industries. He condemns the 1842 act, urges constitutional treasury separation from banks, and supports land sale reforms, post office funding, and navy expansion while addressing frontier policy and Indian relations.
