Awesome article by Hubert van Tull
Very informative article. An interesting note is in regards to his reference to the Pennsylvania tax rebellion of 1794, otherwise known as the Whiskey Rebellion. That successful test of federal authority led to the displacement of the previously thriving western Pennsylvania non-tax-paid corn whiskey (aka moonshine) industry to the remote mountains of Appalachia, where it eventually gave birth to NASCAR
Interesting!
