There are wide swathes of laws and benefits in our society that will never touch me personally - that doesn't invalidate them. Just because I don't need a wheelchair I don't begrudge the push for ramp accessibility - ditto for things like childcare which my parents benefited from but which I've got no intention of exercising. These benefits build a better and more equitable world and I'm fine with paying an almost inconceivably small personal expense to maintain them.
Not everything in life needs to revolve around an absolute maximization of personal gain.
