This is literally the opposite of the libertarian argument against taxation. Paying for what you use is the future, and you’ll love it.
And yes this will include the roads along with their construction/maintenance.

The libertarian argument against taxation is that it's theft, not voluntary, and that a monopoly with no competition faces bad incentives so will provide services sub-optimally.
Has nothing to do with payment plans.

Payment per use fits all of those criteria.
So does prepaid monthly, post-paid monthly, short term flat contract, short term adjustable contract, and every other payment option companies in the market offer to voluntary customers.
Many prefer flat fees to per use.
From a consumer perspective, what is the difference between a flat rate and your wallet auto paying a micro transaction every time you use something?
The only difference is at the end of every month you’ve saved more money using the pay per use model.
Only if you use less than avg other user.
Stress factor too. Gladly pay $10/mo even if I use $8 almost every month, bc one month I might need $30 worth and don't want that variability.
Every product has different optimal pricing for different customers.
