What would happen the next day is the main reason why we don't have purge nights.

Actually, purge night would be a great chance to fake your death. Since all crime is legal on purge night, Bob won't face charges of insurance fraud.
There could be a purge comedy about how boring old Bob from accounting broke into the morgue on purge night to steal a body. His original plan is to leave the body in his house and burn it down, sending the money to his wife who is dying of cancer. But then it turns out that the wife has hired a purge gang to kill Bob for the same reason.
The Purge has begun and I am dead-set on my mission.
Puts dark tint on car windows
Now for the final step...
Backs out of driveway and straight into a telephone pole because the tint was too dark
I would think insurance would just change policy to void claims from Purge Day. There's no way they're accepting life insurance claims for a day with insane amounts of murder.
I doubt people would admit to killing Bob the next day. But people would talk about the bullshit Bob made everyone put up with, and the motives leading to his death. And maybe that would curtail people doing bullshit on the daily.
I expect that after the first few purges, most of the people missing afterwards would be the poor and vulnerable who aren’t able to defend themselves from the group who just want to kill.
That’s literally the plot of the purge. It exists to get rid of poor people.
I haven't ever seen any of The Purge movies but either I heard or just always assumed that's why they all wear masks. Just because it's legal doesn't mean there aren't social consequences.
You don't ask where people are after the purge night. You know and you don't want to know.
John: "But why?"
You: "Marie told me Bob called me a cuck. Fuck that guy."
John: "That wasn't Bob from Sales, it was Bob from Accounts Payable."
You: pulls collar ehhh. whomp whomp music
Iunno maybe those movies just exist to reinforce the idea that the state's monopoly on violence is the only thing seperating us from 'savages'
Jeff, you’re now in sales since you killed the sales team. Yeah, actions have consequences bud.

Why purge if you're going to have consequences?
I only watched the first and it may well be the dumbest shit I’ve ever.
....So, Carol from accounting was a no show...
Bob from sales was annoying as hell and I'm about 70% sure he was the guy stealing everybody's lunches from the breakroom fridge. Nobody should be surprised about this.

Sooooo.... Like one of those Rwandan National Unity and Reconciliation things?
Awkward doesn't even start until about 15-20 years after you murdered a bunch of people.
