That is so true I can tell u that first hand
The Cherokee generally attempted to resist removal by the United States through negotiations and legal proceedings. ... In 1830, when the state of Georgia attempted to confiscate Cherokee lands, the case went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in two separate cases. The court refused to hear The Cherokee Nation v.
The Whiskey Rebellion was considered the first big test for the federal government because it was a result of the first tax put on the American people after creating the US Constitution. This was implemented by the federal government (under President Washington) in order to pay for the war debt generated by the American Revolution. One of the reasons why this was a big test was because the reason America initially rebelled against the British was because of their tax policies. The Whiskey Rebellion provided a challenge to the government, as the way they responded to this revolt would set the tone for how the federal government would respond to a crisis situation.
If there's an economic downturn in a country where the taxes are very high, and those taxes are used for the funding of the numerous social programs, than the country can very quickly face high rates of poverty and maybe even an internal conflict.
If the economy suddenly starts to crumble, the people that work would not be able to support themselves with the paying of very high taxes, thus they will rebel against that in order for the taxes to be lowered down.
On the other hand, that will result in little to no funding for the social programs. That will bring in revolt in the people that are very poor and need those programs, but also the people that do not work by their will but have relied on those money.
These two sides of the picture can easily bring in a lot of violence, tensions, even a revolution.
