You have to look at the way polygamy would change society. In Saudi Arabia, where polygamy is legal, you have rich men collecting wives. This leaves a lot of poor and angry you men around to cause trouble.
Polygamy sounds alright on the surface, but if everyone was doing it, the numbers just wouldn't add up. The reverse scenario (many dudes, one lady) would be much rarer than the more familiar many ladies one due.
