- Glide: 1
- Everyone In Debt!
- We're in debt! What do we do?
- Not sure... We're going to have to pay taxes in land...
- At the end of the Revolutionary War, in winter of 1786, all the nations were in debt, causing the government to tax everyone.
- Glide: 2
- Farmers Going "Land-rupt"
- I'm very sorry, but you must either pay land or be imprisoned due to the Massachusetts laws.
- We may need your help, then...
- Unfortunately, we cannot help.
- Massachusetts passed pro-creditor laws, causing farmers to be imprisoned if they couldn't pay debts. They all asked for help, but the people of other states refused to aid them, since they were trying to improve their own trade.
- Glide: 3
- A Weak Government
- Our government is weak... All the farmers are being imprisoned...
- Isn't this due to the Articles of Confederation? And, who's taxing everyone? The people?
- Since the government was run under the Articles of Confederation, it was very weak. The government couldn't tax, so the people had to do so.
- Glide: 4
- The Economic Causes
- Hey... We're not being paid with silver and gold anymore... Where's our money?
- Yeah, why is that?! Taxes or something???
- The Army was paid with IOUs instead of specie, and the tax on land was high. This caused farmers to struggle. After the Revolutionary War, the whole nation was in debt.
- Glide: 5
- An Uprising Rebellion!
- AND WE'RE BEING IMRPISONED WHY?!
- GIVE US OUR LAND BACK!
- CHA-A-ARGE!!!
- The taxes and pro-creditor laws caused farmers to revolt in Winter of 1786, led by Daniel Shays. They closed down courts, and this signaled a need for change in the government.
- Glide: 6
- The Effects: A New Government!
- We should also defend against domestic violence.
- I think it's time to improve the Articles of Confederation.
- Yeah. Then, everyone can be fairly taxed.
- The Rebellion caused people to realize that they need to improve the Articles of Confederation. This also caused Bowdoin to lose the next election, and the states had to defend against domestic violence.
