George Washington's response to the Whiskey Rebellion was to send peace commissioners to negotiate terms with the ones who were rebelling. He also sent militia in case it was necessary, but it turned out that they were not needed. This action by Washington showed the nation that the government had the ability to suppress insurrection. This finally lead to the formation of political parties.
Alexander Hamilton played a significant role in the Whiskey Rebellion as the secretary of the treasury. He proposed an excise tax on whiskey to help repay the national debt, which sparked opposition and resistance from whiskey distillers in western Pennsylvania. Hamilton supported a strong response, including sending federal troops to quell the rebellion, asserting federal authority and demonstrating the power of the new government under the Constitution.
he viewed the tax on whiskey as a source of revenue.
Yes, because he took certain strides to strengthen it. for example, during the Whiskey Rebellion, he personally led a militia to Philadelphia to face the farmers who refused to pay the taxes. He did this to show that the government had the power to tax the people. He was kind of telling them that this new government had these powers that the old government did not have.
