Because limiting Federal power has been the theme of the US since the beginning. The founders were so afraid of it going the way of monarchy that they didn’t see the consequences this could have back then. Not arguing for or against that, just stating the “why” since you asked.

Local policies counteracting federal policies are also a main ingredient for civil conflicts. It's been a while since the US government and population should have started questioning the mindset of the founding fathers. The social discontent will find a way out.
