LOL. When I said "a kind of Whiskey Rebellion" in the "frontier" I was alluding to the fine citizens who would be affected by higher tariffs in those places, i.e. India, China, Japan, anyplace but the USA. And who are the "producers" in those countries?

Let 'em rebel. They'd still have less cause for doing so than the farmers of 1794, though, because they'd only get taxed on their exports to the U.S. The Pennsylvania distillers got taxed regardless.
