Answer:
B- Indebted farmers, threatened with the loss of land because of failure to meet tax or mortgage payments, pressed state governments for relief.
Explanation:

These events were visible in Shay's rebellion where farmers revolt against the heavy taxation by the states, which was even greater than in the time of Britishers.
