Upkeep/etc for mass amounts of people is the reason taxes exist; taxes are *relatively* annonymous in this regard, and don't single people out... what this is bordering into is a usage fee, as would be charged by a private corporation, rather than a government unbiased against the people... I pay taxes so I can use any/all of those government provided things, not just one of them...
Corporatization leaking into government... interesting.
