And where does it talk about the plight of this poor, poor libertarian, law abiding man that lost his home because of an $8.41 oversight? When a story is legit it gets picked by multiple outlets. When it gets picked up by reason.com they tell you about the seizure but they conveniently omitthe part where he dug his heels in over this $8.41 payment and refused to settle his bill for 2 decades. Threw the 14 notices he received in the garbage. Missed 6 court appearances, spent a night in jail. threatened the district attorney. then finally the seized his property and sold it.

Not saying that system isn't problematic. I am saying this story and its source are trash.
