No, they won't knock on your door with a tax bill. Because it's easier to tax you through inflation to finance that debt:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seigniorage#Seigniorage_as_a_t...

"Economists regard seigniorage as a form of inflation tax, redistributing real resources to the currency issuer. Issuing new currency, rather than collecting taxes paid out of the existing money stock, is then considered in effect a tax that falls on those who hold the existing currency."

Eh. But inflation only affects nominal assets like bonds and bank account balances. Real assets like houses or stocks (to a degree) would be expected to rise along with inflation.

That makes inflation distortionary, not some ideal tax on wealth. Governments can't just run away with inflation as an alternative to tax.
