100% capitalism isn't practical and is unfair (e.g, to the poor and sick). What is a fair way to divide costs for road usage: time of use, miles driven, emissions, cost of vehicle, ability to pay? It's not an easy answer, and many are practically unenforceable. Hence, tax.
And for the record: I'm generally capitalist by economic viewpoint.
