Because the legislation the FTC used to grab that power does not grant them that power. Change the legislation to correct that 'flaw' if that was the intent.
Section “13(b) as currently written does not grant the Commission authority to obtain equitable monetary relief,” Breyer wrote, noting that the FTC can seek restitution under other provisions of the law. “If the Commission believes that authority too cumbersome or otherwise inadequate, it is, of course, free to ask Congress to grant it further remedial authority.”
