The primary reason is the rule of law.

You keep mentioning Brazil in your comments, but as a founder I'd rather not have to keep track of the various government officials I have to bribe in order to be compliant, and even then, not be completely sure.

I hate lawyers and I hate governmental red tape, but at least in the US it's consistent, and the rules are laid out for you ahead of time. Finding out three months after launch that you have to buy Chico's cousin a hooker in order to get your business license renewed is suboptimal.
