the 1860 civil war was started because of taxes and the goverment levving trade restrictions on the south.

I'm a big supporter of strict tariffs, but the North was quite selective on what they sought to tariff — this would be solved by requiring state approval, since unbalanced tariffs would be voted-down by Southern states. No reason to put the federal government in massive debt by banning taxes.
