AP History-The Revolutionary War 1 of 2
In the time of the late war, being desirous to defend secure, and promote the Rights and Liberties of the people, we spared no pains but freely granted
all the aid and assistance of every kind that our civil fathers (political leaders) required of us.
We are sensible also that a great debt is justly brought upon us by the War, and we are as willing to pay our share towards it as we are to enjoy our
shares in independency
"But with the greatest submission we beg leave to inform your Honors that unless something takes place more favorable to the people, in a little time at
least one half of our inhabitants in our opinion will become bankrupt... When we compute the taxes laid upon us the five preceding years, the State
and County, town, and class taxes, the amount is equal to what our farms will rent for. Sirs in this situation, what have we to live on: No money to be had;
our estates daily posted and sold. Surely your Honors are no strangers to the distresses of the people but do know that many of our good inhabitants
are now confined in jail for debt and for taxes. Will not the people in the neighboring states say of this state: although the Massachusetts [people]
boast of their fine Constitution, their government is such that it devours their inhabitants?
If your Honors find anything above mentioned worthy of notice, we earnestly pray that. [the state legislature] would point out some way whereby
the people might be relieved."
Petition from the town of Greenwich to the Massachusetts state legislature, 1786
The concern in the petition about the effect of taxation is best understood in continuity with which of the following earlier developments?
The development of opposition to the United States Constitution
The passage of gradual emancipation laws in some northern states
The revolt against British imperial control of the North American colonies
The increased competition between the British and French in North America

so they can differentiate themselves from others as they saw themselves as the superior race. the star was basically a symbol that meant you are a less of a person than i am because of my race. the star was also degrading for those who had to wear it because they were aware of this and the nazis used the notion to make them feel less like a person.

congress seems to have some powers the states do not have. they can do some pretty big things, they can declare war. and they can lead armies and navies. they also have the power to create a mail delivery system, make foreign treaties, print and borrow money, (both states and congress can do that)and make rules for certain places, i think they said the western states.  

the new government has been a big to growing their country! they are getting new land over west. and they are passing laws which to settle boundary issues.  

although most of this information sounds good for them, bad for us, there are some weaknesses from their plan. the people are still having issues with taxes and trading goods, they also don't have a main leader such as a chief or a president. they also have trouble with currency. the states are printing out so much money the national currency is beginning to be worthless. so things are getting hard to handle over here.  

some of the americans like the new government and think that even if they could ask about changing it they would be ignored. daniel shays got a group of people who hated the new government and decided to attack. this could become either worse or better.

(one-paragraph analysis)  

i think that they may start a war or some sort of big attack to make them change their government. most americans just don't want to discuss it. but i think that daniel man will speak up for them. if they do scare them they will get a better government and be able to deal with their issues better! i think that is what is going to happen next in the u.s., sincerely
