Because it would take over a decade to build a comparable chip fab and thats assuming you had unlimited cash to throw at it.
You'd be spending billions with zero revenue for a decade and no guarantees it'll be anything as close to as good as TSMC's setup. Try finding someone willing to invest in that and it becomes clear why theres not more chip fabs out there.
