literally chain your business door closed.

Not the IRS in my case, but workman's comp. Two business's run out of the same house, but because we structured the newest one as a C-corp and not an LLC we didn't get exemptions from workman's comp, even though we had no "employees" at the time.

Grrrrr.

The government stooge didn't believe my dad when he showed up with the cease and desist - my dad's business most definitely had employees.

Don't mess with the Tax Man if you want to stay in business.
