There is tremendous economic disruption after the war. The currency is worthless; Robert Morris' proposed 5% duty tax to pay for war debts fails. Under the Articles of Confederation economic problems fall to the states to resolve if a unanimous vote of the states cannot be achieved. Citizens, however, rebel against any tax increase states proposed as evidenced by Shays' Rebellion. In order to preserve the Union from internal strike and external aggressors it becomes necessary to consider constitutional reform.
