What was George Washington's personal interest in quelling the Whiskey Rebellion?
Q. There is a common assertion that this country is in moral decline. And I wonder if thats really the case. There are taxes on privilege and taxes on production (Freedom). One is moral and the other not. So to determine the decline we must look back to when liberty itself was cheapened. The articles of confederation did not allow production taxes. And then that was lost in the constitution. What were the issues of the rebelion in that context, with an extra focus on what were George's motivations. Did the moral decline actually start with George Washington?

A. The tax affected smaller producers more than larger ones. George Washington was one such large producer of whiskey. And it was Alexander Hamilton who suggested the whiskey and carriage tax. But the result of the rebellion was that smaller producers in Tennessee and Kentucky benefited while Pennsylvania not so much. That's why we have better Whiskey and Bourbon now. LOL But it's moot since that tax was repealed.

A. I would say about 4-5 minutes per side. That's with letting it preheat all the way. Here is a chart for grilling. Also, just if you wanted to try this, you could marinate them in Italian dressing ALL day and it is absolutely delicious!

A. Laurel, Greenbelt, Clinton, Upper Marlboro, and Bowie. Those are nice areas, Bowie especially. It all depends on your budget and what you can afford. Bowie is a bit pricey, but what isn't these days. Places I would not recommend are the place on the inside of the beltway or closer to DC. Capital heights, suitland, forestville, landover, seat pleasant. If i think of more I'll post them
