Question: if I stop paying my taxes will the sheriff come with guns and toss me out? How many people want to find out? This happens with social security and other taxes too, just usually takes a bit longer and they wait until you owe a lot more. The violence is there, it's just under the polite veneer of pay up or get got.

Depends on the kind of taxes you pay. They can put a lien on your house, garnish your wages, etc. Eventually, sure they may put you in prison, but generally they aren't going to hurt you doing it unless you try to hurt them. You're just renaming coercive measures violence.
