Reminds me of stories about people losing their homes for unpaid property taxes. I recall a story about some paultry amount of unpaid tax (<$100), but because the debt was neglected, the (a few) state's laws permitted the home to be siezed and sold to pay the unpaid amount, and the state gets to keep the balance.
Even owning a home in the woods isn’t safe.
