Yes, I refer you to Hogeland's Founding Finance about how the Revolutionary war was built on a number of economic interests of the US HB and planter classes, which made use of popular discontent before crushing that populist sentiment both during and after the revolution.
Famously, the only reason the Declaration of independence was even made was because a bunch of Working Class popular committees that had wrestled control of the city were meeting upstairs and were about to beat the convention to it.
