If you follow that to its logical conclusion the police would never show up in certain areas of the city. Personally I don't want my country to turn into Sao Pa

  To some degree this already happens though it's less of a direct subscription or denial of services and more of a function of the taxes and connections in an area. Police officers often have entirely different response times, presence, escalation/deescalation strategies and enforcement policies for wealthy and poor parts of a city.

    Good thing that crime rates are one of the few things that get people to vote in council elections.

  >Hell why not a subscription plan for the police? Because the people who currently have a lot of influence over current policing would be up in arms when that "certain neighborhood" police never show up in roll their own minimum viable solution that a) is not up to their standards b) they cannot exert political influence over.

    Beyond that, you can't exactly cancel a subscription on the public servants you pay. It's not like cops are independent contractors.
