I think collective responsibility is a real thing. It is one of the prices we pay as individuals for living in a society with all its benefits. It is like paying taxes, or obeying laws, or exercising common courtesy - just the other side of having security, clean streets, roads, and a free health system, among all the other things.
If you do not want those things, and are not open to paying for them, then go bush. Get a sail boat and take off into the wide blue solitude, don't hang around within that nice community bubble making use of all its benefits and then screech about being mandated to contribute, it's self centred and vaguely ridiculous behaviour for intelligent adults...
