Certainly I do. Do you see the similarities?

They both simply represent some level of common effort for some agreed-upon social goal.

We may differ as to how much we should take from the private for public purpose, and we might also disagree as to whether certain expenditures actually serve a public purpose, but, again, those become arguments of scope, not of right. "Too much" necessarily admits that some amount is appropriate.
