The fact is that you expect certain services when you buy a house and that money has to come from somewhere. Generations of homeowners before you have voted to set things up the way they are, and you’re free to vote for someone with different ideas!

You don’t go to school, but the community you live in is improved by having kids who did. Less crime, more people capable of doing the jobs that make society run, etc.
Also, how on earth do you imagine “entering into a contract” for the roads you drive on? You’d rather have every single road be a toll road? I think that could easily end up costing you more.
