I disagree, the problem is that status quo problems are "acceptable". If a politician legalizes drugs they become personally responsible for every death from those legal drugs.

Taken another way, would this mean if I pay taxes for a war I think is unjust I'm personally responsible for every death?

You become an objecting collaborator. This is one of the key reasons libertarians hate wars, because taxes make you a war-criminal.
