Did the whiskey rebellion convience george Washington to revise the articles of confederation?

Answer 1

The Whiskey Rebellion highlighted the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, particularly the federal government's inability to levy taxes or maintain order. While it did not directly convince George Washington to revise the Articles, it underscored the need for a stronger central government, which he and other leaders recognized. This realization contributed to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, ultimately leading to the drafting of the U.S. Constitution to address these deficiencies.
