Why did Washington support Hamilton's response to the whiskey rebellion?

because it produced symptoms of riot and violence from men in the western counties of Pennsylvania due to "lay and collect excises". They feared that they would refuse to adhere to the tax and law that was generated through a government that they voted for representation. They put down the rebellion quite seriously with a notable amount of troops to show that they were not messing around and prove a point that these men would pay the tax under the government.
