John Adams raised taxes primarily to address the growing national debt and to fund the military, especially during the Quasi-War with France. The increased revenue was necessary to support the country's defense and maintain stability, as tensions with foreign powers heightened. Additionally, the Federalist Party, of which Adams was a part, believed that a stronger federal government required adequate financial resources to effectively govern and protect the nation.

Was John Adams a Democrat?

I don't think the term "liberal" was used when Adams was around, but no, I would say, he was not. ( In my dictionary, a liberal is a rich man who has enough money that he is immune to high taxes and want to re-distribute the wealth of the country via social programs and high taxes on the middle class- Adams was not like that.)
