You don't think armed agents will come...? No, I do not, because that's not how the IRS works. Do you have evidence to the contrary? Perhaps even a single example of "armed agents" showing up to the residence or workplace of someone who has failed to pay those taxes? your recourse is to do something similar to what the IRS does when they do not get paid. Except that I don't have the authority to garnish wages or put liens on property. Like the IRS does.

You don't think the agents that arrested Al Capone for tax fraud were armed?

Here ya go: https://www.nytimes.com/1998/04/30/us/3-businessmen-testify-of-armed-raids-by-irs.html https://www.nytimes.com/1998/04/30/us/3-businessmen-testify-... “Three businessmen told the Senate Finance Committee today of Internal Revenue Service agents who, with guns drawn, broke down doors, terrified workers and forced teen-age girls to change clothes in front of male agents in raids at the men's homes and businesses that they said were unnecessary. These aggressive paramilitary tactics were denounced as intolerable and ‘’fascist’’ by Democratic and Republican senators as the panel heard testimony for a second day in its second round of hearings on I.R.S. abuses of taxpayers.”
