Providing the parking spaces, and the car lanes to drive on, are both massive investments in real estate, given over for your use to store and use your vehicle. The fees and taxes you mention aren't nearly enough to pay for those investments themselves - they are supplemented with funds from property and income taxes. It might not seem like it, but you are getting a very good bargain, especially compared to someone that doesn't own a car.
