For the same reason we “need” an income tax - should have never evolved as such because it allowed the government to grow into the entity that was described as “big enough to give you everything you need and also big enough to take everything you have”....Other than light houses (mostly needed in a bygone era), and other services that would not normally be worth a company delving into, and the military, there is no real valid reason for the government to be handling so much of our money...
