Because you're not providing anything to help others out, you're trying to help yourself out. When you answer questions, and vote on questions, you're helping others. Once you've got enough points, the 5 you lose on askign a question arent' even noticable.

each question costs you five points. so does deleting an answer.
why do you care? points are worthless.
two million points and dollar will get you cup of coffee.

I think because otherwise the site would be bombarded with even more ridiculous questions than it already has.

I haven't noticed. I answer questions, ask questions, vote on best answer, work my Avtar off.
