The government never helped them
Farmers' lands and their money.
The money shortage from the revolutionary war was particularly hard on farmers who could not earn enough to pay their debts and taxes. In Massachusetts, judges ordered farmers to sell their land and livestock to pay off their debts. Led by Daniel Shays, a hero of the Battle of Bunker Hill, Massachusetts farmers rebelled. In 1786, Shays and his followers closed down courthouses to keep judges from taking their farms. Then they marched on the national arsenal at Springfield to seize the weapons stored there. Having disbanded the Continental army, Congress was unable to stop them Farmers feared the loss of their crops, livestock, and farms to foreclosure.
Farmers were angry, but the businessmen were happy. The farmers were taxed more then they could handle, so when they were unable to pay, their families were taken away, and they were sent to jail. They later rebelled.
I think the people who were involved in Shays' Rebellion were Farmers who didn't want to pay taxes that they could not afford so they threw a riot! And The Federal Troops were also involved!
It frightened some leading Americans. They believed that a stronger central government would protect against popular unrest. In response, Congress asked the states to send delegates to a convention in Philadelphia in 1787. their task was to revise the Articles of Confederation.
