The Handling of The Whiskey Rebellion

            The Democratic and Republican society had many different views on how to run the government and politics. As a result, there have been many heated debates over what each group feels to be the right way to handle a task. Jay’s Treaty and Washington’s method of handling the Whiskey rebellion allowed Democratic and Republican views to be heard from various states. This showed that talks about the government were no longer only in the Congress. There were others who were not even involved in Congress who joined parties in which they were recognized because of their views. This occurred because each group felt a sense of pride in goals and wanted to lend their voices on certain topics which would ultimately bring more support to their side. It would also help recruit others who also had the same way of thinking. These events normally occurred because of what the other side has done. For example, Republicans felt that the way Washington imposed too much force when they stopped the Whiskey Rebellion. This issue in “politics flared up with renew heat.” Meetings were held in cities for those who supported Washington’s act and those who did not.
