1. Because our Great Grandfathers tax dollars built it
2. Because we owned it
3. Because it's strategic
4. Because we're the arrogant capitalist pigs of the planet and we should stay that way
5. Because I hope that answer (#4, above) offends the heck out of you for asking such a sucky question!!!

Without it any ship traversing from the Pacific to the Atlantic or vice versa needs to go around an entire continent.

1. Because our Great Grandfathers tax dollars built it
Hmmm...must have been done on the cheap. They didn't pay income taxes back then!! Anyway, we should have built it in Nicaragua.
2. Because we owned it
Haven't you ever donated an old junker car to a local charity?
3. Because it's strategic
Er, strategic to what? Our ships won't even fit through the canal anymore.
4. Because we're the arrogant capitalist pigs of the planet and we should stay that way
But the canal was never a project of capitalism. Shoot, in its heydey, I doubt it ever made any money. But just look at Panama City; now there is arrogant capitalism for you. If you didn't know better, you'd think you were in Miami.
5. Because I hope that answer (#4, above) offends the heck out of you for asking such a sucky question!!!
Nah. You'll have to try harder.

Our larger naval ships won't fit through the canal. Ditto for the larger, modern cargo ships.
Plus, you have to pay to go through the canal. For newer, faster ships, going around Cape Horn can be more economical overall.
On the other hand, the canal is a big hit with the cruise ships.
