What about roads and infrastructure, and public services, parks, pools, clean streets, and so forth? You think temporary militias are handling that?
What you are describing is boilerplate politics. Politics is a game of power. When politicians exert their power over you by doing what you have described, what dynamic is being played?
The maintenance and building of roads and infrastructure, and public services, parks, pools, clean streets are at the end of the day done by individuals and private companies.
Look at a walmart parking lot, it is oftentimes better upkept and much better than the roads that lead to it. In my area, parks kept up by HOAs and private schools are better than any "public" park. Pools are the same. Streets aren't fucking cleaned lol. Volunteers pick up trash occasionally.
The government just stealing taxes, keeps "busy", and inefficiently does things occasionally.

The problem is that anarchy can't exist. It's an impossible utopia, just like communism. Ironically, it can't work for the same reasons communism can't work: because greedy, power-hungry crooks will take advantage of the situation and leverage it to their advantage. Humans are social and hierarchical by their nature. Any attempt to push against that nature will fail. There is no system you can build that can protect against tyranny. None. The only possibility to protect against tyranny is for the people to resist it. If they won't resist it then there's no possibility of stopping it.
A society that values truth above all might have a chance.
My government keeps my city clean and parks safe, I see people using them just enjoying their day. I don't envy the people in charge, they have to balance so many things. The seedier parts of the city, and the crowds that brings makes the city money but it also hurts the image of the city. Then there's the developers which change things which require huge infrastructure changes, forcing taxes to be raised. It's such a complex web of interests and having to cater to them all has to be nerve wracking.
Find a city that is restricting the placement of sewers. No sewer = no developments = no usda loans = no shenanigans.
First infrastructures ever built were done by individual men. Then the govercunts seized them and pretended that it takes a state to make gkat hard surfaces.
All through the power of indoctrination camps called schools.
My tip to you. Check your sources of data
That's like 2% of the federal budget man. It's mostly just gibs and missiles for Isreal.
Yeah but at a city level?
Start by slashing the fed and see where that gets us? Ideally all public services should be opt out to save money but at least you can move to Carolina where the property tax is like $700 a year and there are no services.
If you live in a blue state you will know that they will find ways to waste your money on a state and local level too (BLM murals, teachers union gibs, moahr o dem programs) but at least it's right there in front of you and you can make life hell for your local politicians or get out. The greater crime is the fed in my opinion, the insidious, ever growing, unacccountable mass of bureaucracy.
