There are factors other than economics involved, such as aesthetics and appreciation of quality.

Should people not care about (random example) the Grand Canyon because they have no "skin in the game" other than the tiny percentage of their tax money that goes to fund the operation of the park? A less-lofty example would be to argue that people shouldn't have a preference between a first-rate restaurant and Burger King, simply because a meal at the restaurant (though expensive) doesn't represent a significant portion of their annual income.
