Can you recall the evens that took place during Shay Rebellion?

"The poor man's revolution"

OpenStudy (just_one_last_goodbye):

Oh lol i can help

OpenStudy (bellablain):

Shays' anger began to fume during the postwar depression because the Massachusetts legislature denied the demands of farmers for paper money that would have prevented foreclosure on their lands. So many farmers began to lose their farms and all that they had. Shays was hit hard by the impact of the depression on not only himself, but seeing the effects that it had on his friends and family of the community. His response? Rebel and force the government to help out the people in the country for whom he had just risked his life. Shays took action immediately. He took charge of the insurgents at Springfield and forced the Supreme Court to adjourn. With these troops, he led a surprise attack on the government in January 1787. The government was shocked by not only his efforts, but also the support behind his efforts.

Right Bella, commoners were upset because of the depression after the wars. They were protesting against taxes, etc. Now that you know it was an economic riot -- which answer seems most correct?

domestic economy and security
