\"\"<\/a> (Note: We are using the BJU Heritage Studies, an American history curriculum, supplemented with my research)<\/p>\n

After the American Revolution, the states needed money to pay their soldiers, so taxes were levied.\u00a0 Kind of ironic since they had just fought a war about taxes, but at least this time the colonists had representatives, unlike before.<\/p>\n

Thing is, alot of people didn’t like the idea of new taxes.\u00a0 Daniel Shay’s led a group of farmers in a revolt. Their revolt ultimately drew attention to the need for a Constitution.
