It would make sense if the US had been a fully capitalistic society for over the past century, but it hasn't. It has gotten progressively more socialistic, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse and any modern system that has to survive is a mixture of both.
Of course you could argue that people who pay more tax use more of the natural resources too including the roads and docks to transport goods, the electrical grid, the gas pipelines, the railway lines, running water, lighting, the police force to stop 500 people come and kick down the door and rob them blind, the trading and resource management so they can afford reasonable priced resources, while not stripping an area bare, food production so they don't starve, the working people to keep their life to the standard they become accustomed too and most of these features have only spread through the nation due to government support with large payouts.
The only reason why the west was settled was big government payouts and free land offers for instance, that were backed up by a taxed paid for military to subdue those living there and setup with resources and infrastructure.
A pure capitalistic society collapses just as fast as a pure socialistic society.
