"economic inequity" lol yep so that's NOTHING new.. we are hearing this same thing today.. and one of reasons tax tax tax. I like the idea of ONLY landowners voting... we need that today..land owners to vote in state, and federal tax PAYERS net sum. in federal elections. Great motivation to be a tax payer than receiver.

This story is starting to remind me of modern times...

title FAIL: Shays'...NOT Shay's

It would be more accurate for this video to be entitled "Shays's Rebellion" as the leader of this rebellion was named Daniel Shays and not Daniel Shay. ;)

The guy who is in the gray coat with a bow-tie seems so pretentious. He even fakes an accent at one point in efforts to sound intellectually superior.

It wasn't the aristocratic slave-owning founding fathers such as Samuel Adams who fought for shay's rebellion, rather they were the ones who caused such a crisis by exploiting the working-class and poor as well as supporting the profits of banks who were manipulating farmers. Also it was them that tried to diminish such resistance and dissent. We shouldn't try to skew history to fit it into our biased idolizations. Though the founding fathers did good, they also did much wrongdoing

really educated video..nice : )
The confusion might be that Shay's Rebellion spurred people into action--but it spurred the Constitutional Convention not the Declaration of Independence--but in the same family--all part of the broad American Revolution!

Who owns the copyright to this video? I want to use this video to educate people about debt counseling and using this video to show that we are facing the same issue as our forefather's had faced.
