I'm not interested in redistribution, I'm interested in public goods. I want public transit, public housing, public health, and public internet. Why? Because it benefits me when other people have housing, can get around without cars, and aren't unnecessarily catching and spreading communicable diseases. These things aren't "worth" it on a purely financial basis, but they're absolutely worth it on a social basis. How do you defeat the prisoner's dilemma? You make a binding, enforceable pact. How do you prevent the tragedy of the commons? You cap the amount people can graze their animals on public land, and remove privileges from those that violate the cap. How do you improve the quality of life of literally every person in the country? You make policy and infrastructure, and then you fund it and maintain it.
