What was the cause of Shays’ Rebellion?

the answer is c

The main problem with states controlling their own currency was that states always had to pay the national government more money than they were able to produce. This is option A. To determine the correct answer, we need to look at the advantages and disadvantages of states controlling their own currency.

Option B is incorrect because states being able to make their own money and assign it a specific value is actually an advantage of states controlling their own currency. This allows states to have more control over their economy and monetary policy.

Option C is also incorrect because the durability of paper money is not a main problem with states controlling their own currency. While it is true that paper money needs to be periodically replaced due to wear and tear, this is a common issue regardless of who controls the currency.

Option D is incorrect because state-produced currency making interstate trade easier to control is also an advantage of states controlling their own currency. Having control over the currency allows states to manipulate trade and protect their own economy.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A, as it explains one of the main problems with states controlling their own currency - the financial burden of paying the national government more money than they were capable of producing.
