    Divide the expense equally among the population. Impose tolls and usage fees where possible.

    If more cops don't show up when I call, I should not pay more than you for the service.

    Asked and answered. If I don't get more police responding to my call, I shouldn't have to pay more for the service.

    If you treat it as users paying for a service yes, but the question was why necessarily look at it that way.

    In terms of how our economies work, it can also be viewed that governments create money, and existing money erodes as it circulates.

    The physical media home video market was born of customer willpower, and small businessman savvy, and big studios have always resented it.
    Like Paramount resented the power of boomer-Trekkies.
    And Republicans resent the popularity of SS and Medicare.

    Now if only we could learn the lesson of the birth/rise of VHS, and apply it to solar cars.
    And getting abortion back to red states.

    Governments do not create money. Except in the sense that they mint it. Economies create money. Which is to say, economic activity creates or adds value, which is symbolized as money, or more properly currency.
    A properly functioning government creates the environment in which economic activity can take place in a reasonably sane manner. Rule of law, personal property rights, etc.
