But I don't have to pay for them in taxes, either. Many roads were, historically, built by private organizations for profit. With modern technology, it would be possible to charge users by the ton-mile and the only impact would be in a monthly statement.

That doesn't seem more efficient than just having taxes. You will always have people that pay a bit more or less and get bakc a bit more or less (by usage), still the work it would take to have every infrastructural change paid for with private funds would be thousands of times bigger than having the federal state use it's tax revenue.

I mean, eg the Hoover dam.....such a thing would never ever be possible when made using private funds. Of course only when you would have these huge mega companies......but I think we agree that those would be just as bad or worse than the federal state.
