Bzzzz.

Spending taxpayer dollars for tasks that benefit ALL the people are legitimate.

Correct, except you left out that there exists no circumstance where ALL the people benefit from said spending. And if there were, the people would still be better served by private companies doing the gov't's job better, faster and cheaper. Finally, if what you say were true, then there would be no need to do any gov't regulated spending - people would still be able to pay for such oh-so-necessary and loved-by-all services by themselves. The very fact that you need to force people to do so, and in a very unequal way to boot, proves your concept wrong.

In my country (and I'm pretty sure in the US too) if he were able to show that you braked out of spite, on purpose or anyway in order to have an accident, you'd be in much greater trouble than the idiot tailgater.
So what I do is, I switch on the rear fog lights. Now either the idiot backs off or he suffers from too much light in his eyes. Not as satisfying, I'll give you that...
