not quite right. it is NOT the government that collects, and this is not a tax. there's a "non-profit" organisation called GEMA that collects and re-distributes these things.
So if you don't pay GEMA who *are* those folks with the guns?
GEMA will most likely sue you. but since GEMA isn't the government, that's a civil case.
The "right" of GEMA to sue is enforced by folks claiming to be from your "State" who carry guns, no? A level of indirection doesn't change anything.
