That's because you're buying into the Imperial propaganda that the intended result is, in fact, a functioning government. The entire edifice is actually a scheme designed to maximize suffering, because that's what the crazy cult that the Emperor's secretly in charge of calls for. Rahm Kota's got a series of holovids talking all about it on the darknet!
That's extremist, terrorist propaganda!!
There is only one Vader boi & he can't personally chop that many not just the men, but the women and children too.
And the mad lad is just sent on hotspots as a deterrent basically.
And most of the time he fights groups that were established & hoarded their corrupted wealth under the Republic-sanctioned orders.
The Republic artificially maintained wealth classes, kept some planets poor just to solidify it's government's reign & power.
With resources to eradicate it all.
