Why?

Who cares if a citizen leaves? I have always thought that the ONLY reason that the airline checks your PP is so they can be reasonably sure you will be admitted at your destination. Otherwise if you get sent back, the AIRLINE has to take you - and they don't want that. Other than this I am not sure why the govt cares if you go.
