Wait, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, because just about all those things that you mentioned actually do happen. You DO get evicted if you fail

You DO get evicted if you fail to pay rent. The hospital won't make the pacemaker stop working, but they'll refuse further treatment that might be necessary. The lawyer wouldn't tell all your secrets, but might be asked to help track you down. Repo men DO come and collect your TV if you don't pay for it. Your citizenship won't be revoked if you don't pay your taxes, but you can go to prison, thus having your liberty (arguably the most important part of citizenship) revoked. And most of these things happen in public, for everyone to see.

- lambda 13y agoNote that eviction requires the landlord to go to court, not just unilateral action on the part of the landlord. Somehow I doubt this web designer got a court order to allow them to deface their client's page. Hospitals will not refuse treatment that is necessary to provide life support. Collections agencies generally operate by sending you mail and calling your phone repeatedly until they get their payment. The contents of your mail and phone calls are generally private. Note that most of these are private matters, generally considered confidential.
