Answer: They resented Confederate taxes.
Explanation:
One of the reasons the Southern sates left was to be more independent as they did not appreciate the powers of a strong central government. The Confederate government therefore, was not to be very strong and capable of overriding the powers of state government.
This changed as the war went on however because a strong central government was needed to coordinate efforts. The President, Jefferson Davis, introduced taxes amongst other things and this did not sit well with Southern governors who felt that their authority was being stripped away.
The termination policy was the government's practice for moving Native Americans from the reservations to the cities. This was done with two purposes. The first was to force Native Americans to assimilate into Western society. They were promised all the rights and everything else that comes with being a United States citizen, including paying taxes. Tribes were exempt from certain taxes before this policy was enacted. The second was to sever ties between the federal government and the Native American Tribes. The government found Native Americans on reservations were living in extreme poverty and felt that they would be better off. In the end the effect it had was to remove federal funding and other aid from being provided to the Native Americans. It also brought about the end of reservation life. It forced the Native Americans into assimilation, which had it own lasting issues on the tribes.

Actually, no less a student of the United States than Andrei Gromyko once remarked that Americans have "too many doctrines and concepts proclaimed at different times" and so are unable to pursue "a solid, coherent, and consistent policy." Only recall the precepts laid down in Washington's Farewell Address and Jefferson's inaugurals, the speeches of John Quincy Adams, the Monroe Doctrine with its Polk, Olney, and Roosevelt Corollaries, Manifest Destiny, the Open Door, Wilson's Fourteen Points, Franklin Roosevelt's wartime speeches and policies, Containment in all its varieties, Nixon's détente, Carter's Notre Dame speech, Clinton's enlargement, and the Truman, Eisenhower, Nixon, Carter, and Reagan Doctrines. Far from hurling the country into a state of anomie, the end of the Cold War has revealed anew the conceptual opulence that has cluttered American thinking throughout this century.
