I think you misunderstand the point of taxation. The Cajun navy is a bad example because the people who needed it didn't pay and neither did the people who provided it - they had the capability and acted. There are many things that many of us will one day need but not necessarily today (elder income). There are other things that very few of us need but which none of us can bear (autism support). And there are some things that all of us need reliably all of the time (bridges, police, etc) but which we value differently. Rather than have endless squabbles about each item, we provide a tax pool and hire representatives to sort out the competing priorities.
