My first preference is to pay for whatever I want/need to the greatest extent possible, have things taken/given to the minimal extents possible.
My second is for my taxes to pay for a professional and/or volunteer jury. Same for an army. No conscription. If I want to be a soldier or jurist, I'll let you know.
