The Whiskey Rebellion

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The Whiskey Rebellion led to the development of two distinct political groups.

Explanation:

The Whiskey Revolt was an American tax conflict that began in 1791 during the presidency of George Washington.

Farmers used their leftover grain to make whiskey. They could then use them when exchanging goods. Finance Minister Alexander Hamilton wanted them to pay taxes on it. In this way he hoped to pay off the American war debt quickly. Many of the farmers were veterans from the War of Independence and thought they stood for the principles of that revolution. They wanted to be free from the federal government, while it thought it had the legal power to levy taxes because Congress had decided to do so.  

In counties throughout western Pennsylvania, the population intimidated tax officials and made it impossible for them to work. The resistance peaked in July 1794 when a crowd of more than five hundred armed men attacked the fortified home of tax official John Neville. President George Washington sent negotiators to talk to the rebels. At the same time, he asked the governors of Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania to make men available. An army consisting of more than thirteen thousand militia men arrived in western Pennsylvania. The insurgents had gone home before the arrival of the army and it was not an armed meeting. Some leaders of the uprising were convicted of treason but were pardoned by Washington.

The Whiskey revolt showed that the new federal government was prepared to use force to comply with the law. The uprising also contributed to the formation of political parties, a development that was already underway. The Whiskey tax was abolished by the Democratic-Republican Party after Thomas Jefferson came to power in 1801.

Answer the following
Ivahew [28]

First of all, a <em>supply curve</em> is a chart in Economy that shows us the relation between Price and Quantity of a certain good or service. Several factors may cause this curve to shift to the left or right, e.g.: An increase of customers' purchase power, the decrease of the need for a certain product by the population, and so on...

a. Resource prices rise is another example, and would cause the supply curve to shift to the left. As with it, the final price of the products that depend on this given resource for their production, would rise, hence causing their buyers to purchase fewer quantities of them.

b. If a quota is placed on a good, it would also cause this good's final price to rise, hence causing the consumers to buy less, hence shifting the curve to the left as well.

<em>Note: </em>Of course, these are assuming that the goods in question are <em>non-essential </em>goods. That is, people may choose to buy less of them. In case of essential goods (like toilet paper, or electric power for example), people would still consume it regardless of changes in price! And in that case, the curve would stay still, or even shift slightly to the right, upon a price rise.

Vanyuwa [196]

The distinctive, unwritten code of conduct that governs the behavior, attitudes, relationships, and style of an organisation is known as company culture which is mainly divided into 4 types.

A company culture influences results from prime to bottom. It increases employee retention, engagement and performance. It becomes the priority of employees and sets expectations for how they should behave.

Types of company culture are clan culture which prioritize communication, adhocracy culture which focus on new ideas of company's growth and success,  market culture which values meeting quotas, reaching targets and getting results, and hierarchy culture which focus on adaptability and change, prioritizing clear direction.
