You really can't: all societies throughout history establish and maintain a sense of political hierarchy through taxation. You can also call it "tribute" if you wish, and whatever you are taxed in gains additional use value as tender for such tribute. This is actually how gold and silver probably gained most of its historical value: to a bumbling goatfucking tribesman, gold and silver are pretty, shiny novelties that have little use value beyond that frivolity.

Bad news for the IRS: If Doomsday happens, we won't have essential services, like Fire and Police, who will be crushed under the weight of everyone's need. (If we do have those, it's not really Doomsday, just a bad day). Which means to collect those taxes, actual agents will have to go outside and collect in person. Which also means that it will be a long while before anyone comes investigating that IRS agent's death. And they will die, if they go out demanding money during the collapse of everything. If an actual Doomsday happens, this is all bullshit. Everyone, including the IRS agents, will be too busy staying alive to leave their families for this nonsense. Maybe this plan is for National Emergencies. That would make a lot more sense than some guy going out into the apocalypse to risk his life for a government that probably no longer exists. If Doomsday happens, our fiat monetary system will collapse immediately, and the survivors will go back to bartering goods and services. You're telling me that some agent is going to travel (somehow) to other states to collect taxes on a trade of 4 chickens for a goat? Doomsday. I don't think that word means what you think it means.
