The context is someone arguing that you shouldn't worry about the federal government wasting $32 million, because it's chump change for them. My point is the polite requests they make are ultimately backed up by these SWAT teams, and that you shouldn't take taxation lightly as a result. Obviously very few cases require them to deploy a SWAT team, since most people would rationally choose to pay the $100.
I'm not saying taxation is bad or that they'll jump on you at the first sign of disobedience, just that the commenter's callous attitude towards spending tax money is bad. It's a very entitled mindset that no government official should have.
