Only in a very unique circumstance would that be so.

There you go, so it is possible. And since we agree that it is possible, I would say that in the vast majority of those few cases, it's still worth it in order to secure your property. That's all I was trying to say. And in that sense the gov't spending $5 million to re-coup $1 million (or whatever) in back rent - and to secure their property, is not as unreasonable as some seem to be making it out to be. Sometimes you'll pay more than what you are owed to secure your property.

ETA: Look, here it is again, "Only the government would spend 1.5 million to collect a milljon" as if there isn't more to the eviction than simply collecting on back rent - there is also the issue of securing the property.
