the $75 should have been a mandatory tax.

I'm not savvy about laws. But I think it would be illegal to make it a mandatory tax.

All taxes are mandatory. I have to pay my state and local taxes as well as federal. I can't decide to opt out.

Not all taxes.  Some states and countries run on a subscription fee rather then a tax.  Like this fire department i'd guess.
