Because its hard to recruit when everyone is well taken care of and no injustices are being forced upon entire populations. The only thing that can combat such lunacy is education and time. Injustice begets further injustice; tolerance and education mean you take some hits in order yo minimize future ones.
Obviously there are times when a violent counter action is warranted, but currently that is our go to option.

There has never been, in the history of the world, a time when everyone was "well taken care of". And there never will be.
