I believe you just justified taxation.

  You want my money, and in return, you will give me....what? Nothing. You have nothing to offer me, other than taxation. Have a nice night.

    Affordable housing, roads, utilities, criminal justice, social safety net, healthcare, or other social needs may not be profitable but are still needed for the functioning of society. Hence, taxes are justified as charitable giving is insufficient to cover the costs and a functioning society is almost universally desirable over autarky. At least, that was my takeaway from your original comment describing the behavioral characteristics regarding the affordable housing market.
