It seems without a conviction of criminal activity, Colorado seems to want to publish libel against her citizens. We all know how inaccurate the goobermint can be, such that innocent people will most likely be the target of such publications.
Will Colorado accept lawsuits for libel that causes harm?
Will someone lose a job or contract?
Will a company or person become blacklisted by their peers over a false publication?
I agree that a conviction may be the source for a publication, but to publish based upon an inaccurate computer tax record would be negligence in the first degree.

Even if you do owe money to someone, it's not a crime. If you can't pay now, they creditor will just have to wait until you can pay.

And what will be done when some of the delinquints turn out to be state law-makers, judges, department heads or political appointees? Hmmm??? Will they also be posted?

there are 1,541 individuals and businesses who owe more than $20,000 each in overdue income taxes. The list of their tax identification numbers ... Pay up or have your name, address, and SS# published on the internet. That'll teach 'em.

Connecticut revenue officials indicate they have increased their collection of overdue taxes by $115 million in the five years there since the public shaming became state law. Tax cheats must hate it.

Unreal.
In Connecticut they had pictures of sexual predators on the web and Someone (ACLU?) sued to have them removed.
