"could not be stolen through any amount of force". If bitcoins are practically unstealable/unconfiscatable then that'd be neat, but they aren't. They are stolen in vast quantities all the time by malware. If the government wants your bitcoins badly enough it can run a tank into your house, use force to compel you to tell them your password, torture you etc. You're not screwing the state over, you're giving it an incentive to take a hostile interest in you. Did anyone download the clients anonymously? Not many did. They will know.
