RIAA relies on the government to enforce whatever royalty/penalties they decide to implement. Without government externalizing the costs of enforcement on the taxpayers RIAA couldn't afford it.

Government exercises its enforcement powers on behalf of the people. Why shouldn't the people pay for it?

The "people" on whose behalf the enforcement is exercised is different than the "people" who pay for it, of course. Your question should be, "why shouldn't the RIAA pay for it?"
