Well, if you live all your life in a city where everything is within walking distance, why should you have to pay taxes for road upkeep? Or what if you can't afford to have a car?
I think that companies that have a distribution network (like postal or telecommunication services) have a certain point where they can't be efficient financially and still at the same time have a sufficient cover for their users. If the latter is desired by a majority of the people, why not pay taxes for it?
