USER CHARGE: A tax that's disguised as a price--a charge for the use of a publicly provided good.

The logic is that people who benefit from the good and are willing to pay, should pay for them. While this helps pay production costs, it tends to be inefficient.

The alternative to autonomous expenditures are induced expenditures, expenditures which do depend on income.
