The Whiskey Rebellion, which occurred in the 1790s, primarily stemmed from opposition to the federal excise tax on distilled spirits, implemented to help pay off national debt. Many rural farmers, particularly in Western Pennsylvania, relied on whiskey production as a vital source of income and viewed the tax as unjust and burdensome. The rebellion highlighted tensions between the federal government and frontier communities, raising questions about the balance of power and the rights of citizens to resist perceived oppression. Ultimately, the government’s response demonstrated its determination to enforce federal authority.
