"if a town wants to pool their money and pay to build out infrastructure that should be legal"

If people want to pool their own money together, they can. The only thing this bill prevents is the government from forcing an individual to pay for something.

Even if every individual was morally obligated to pay for something that the town wants (which is not the case), providing services is not the proper role of government.

Does that apply to police and firefighting as well?
