The government takes to pay for Roads, Bridges, military and pay for all of the programs you use on a daily basis. No one likes taxes, but if there werent taxes we would be a lot worse off than we are. Price for freedom. If you would like it more like a "reputable" company like ebay and paypal, than you are suggesting that the government charge per mile of highway/roadway you drive, Charge for each time a "terrorist" is killed, and charge for every time you want a loan. Which yes they do, but they do it on a level that requires a lot less employees.
Toll ways are usually owned by a company and not a government, such as the toll roads in Orange county are owned and operated by The Irvine Companies, the toll ways in Colorado are owned by another company.
