Here's some things I want government to pay for with OUR tax dollars:
education - I have no kids
health
highways I don't drive
provincial parks - need a car to get there
marine charts
forest fire protection
police
old age pension for those amongst us not lucky enough to have been able to
fund their own retirement
immigration initiatives like the one that encouraged my family to leave
their country on faith and help build the cities we are lucky enough to
appreciate
a national postal service which gets a letter across the country in 2 or 3
days for less than a cup of coffee
regulations which allow me to walk into a restaurant and 99.9 % of the time,
I don't get sick.

lots more.
