This is known as the "public good" problem. Hard-line libertarians and conservatives deny that such a thing exists, while moderate conservatives acknowledge the possibility, but define it so narrowly as to be meaningless. Other right-leaning individuals acknowledge both the existence and value of public goods, but have such distrust of government that they'd rather go without, or failing that, allow a single company to impose its own form of taxation.
