Actually, simulating legal process, not to mention fraud, can get you busted.

You seem to have missed the point. In my example "I" was acting as the government appears to act. I am merely questioning the legitimacy of such action. Especially in a country that is supposed to the "the land of the free".
Your argument seems to be: The government can do whatever it likes because it legitimately owns all the land we're on.

As with so many things, context is critical. The actions you describe are legitimate only if they are done according to due process of law.
The government does not own the land (with certain qualifications), it is only acting as fiduciary for the owners.
