Alberta's Child: "After reading extensively about the events surrounding the Whiskey Rebellion in the early 1790s, I realized that the United States of America as envisioned by these Founders probably didn't even last one decade."

Then you misunderstand the Founders' original intent for their Constitution.
In fact, the Constitution in several places addresses issues like rebellion, insurrection, "domestic violence", invasion and treason.

These provision came into play during the Whiskey Rebellion, and again in 1861.

Maybe you misunderstand the Whiskey Rebellion, the events surrounding it, and its aftermath.

Many of the "insurrectionists" were former soldiers in the American Revolution who took up arms because they decided that the Federal government in Washington, D.C. was no better than King George III.

Most of these "insurrectionists" were either acquitted of any crimes, or were eventually pardoned.

The whiskey tax was eliminated after Thomas Jefferson took office in 1801.

I don't know ... it sounds to me as if the "rebels" were right all along.
