That applies to what the person I responded to as well. So my statement still is fine within that context.

Taxes aren't some special category of owed money that carries with it a unique consequence.

If you don't pay income taxes they might throw you in jail. No private debtor can do that.

If you don't pay your mortgage, and you refuse to leave, they might still throw you in jail. Ditto if you don't pay your car loan, and you try to keep them from taking the car.
