That does not seem to make much sense. Do you also think street building and maintenance, police, army, etc. should only be supported by people "specifically interested" in these services?

Yes, of course. If you want a service, you pay for it yourself. You have no right to make anyone else pay for what you want against their will.

Game-theoretic results prove that this cannot possibly work (tragedy of the commons).

Your second sentence is no argument, just a claim. I counter-claim that I do have that right. So it seems to be a stalemate with respect to claims.
