I understood it as debts under threat of eviction, imprisonment or both. Water, sewage, electricity fees, property tax, legally mandated insurance, services and inspections.

Pretty US-centric. Some of those are payments for services you're voluntary subscribing to. Most can be avoided by moving to a different locale. Taxes are what I was thinking of.

- I mirrored the term forced from the post I replied to, which used it to rephrase my previous term mandatory payments.

- I wrote these posts from personal experiences in the EU.

- I differentiated between on grid and off grid living in regard to utility payments. Avoiding these bills would require full self sufficiency.

- Any apartment type facility requires grid fees for shared spaces, even if you could technically make your property self sufficient.

- I meant property confiscation, or dispossession instead of eviction.

- You made these connections yourself, then you could respect your opposite enough to avoid making redundant inquiries.

i also wasn't talking about not paying bills i acrued by receiving a benefit

these are bills that someone voted into existence and i had no say in it and the cost goes to me and i did nothing wrong so it is a punishment and itself an act of violence

really, people have such a muddled morality these days that they don't know the difference between paying your due and being robbed

Pretty US-centric BUT some...

as in my view is US-centric
