Because we were not created to rule or govern ourselves. Our creator is the only one with the qualifications to rule us. (Jeremiah 10:23 says, in part...It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step. ) If we can't direct our own step...what makes us think we can rule over others' lives?
Adam and Eve decided they wanted to decide for themselves what is right and wrong...to govern themselves, so they disobeyed and ate from the tree in the middle of the garden. They were wrong on so many levels!

Haven't you heard the old saying?
Capitalism is man dominating his fellow man.
Socialism is exactly the other way round.

It's the main purpose of religion. A system allowing few men to dominate many.

Some people are obsessed with control. They want to have things their way and they're prone to lying, manipulating and even destroying to get what they want. These people don't just exist in the politcal world. We're surrounded by them!
