Well first thing first I assume a lot of people will pay in given case due to lack of other options. but lets assume people will prefer to drink to infinity than help save human society. Second, there is a natural reason to help the collective, both do to gratitude towards it (especially if its a socialist collective) and necessity of its existence (you want the civil world to exist, for your own sake). Buts lets assume total egotism.
As I see it, there is always the option making leeching a much worse option using communal means. Almost all humans are dependent on the collective to some level, from police to health-care to the very basic supply of food. This means that if the majority of people agree to a set of "laws" they can "force" them on the whole of society with a threat of excommunication, of alienating individuals who do not follow them (including breaking said laws by breaking the excommunication), without the use of violence.

So 1/6 dollars to help save the world? I would be in (even for much, much more)... but as said some people might prefer beer...
