Because the market didn't force him to at that time. Either you trust the free market to deliver the best prices or you favor socialism or some other government-run pricing system. There are no in-between choices.
It didn't? Why not?

What will make the market force him to do it now? Just because some corporations have seen their taxes go down? What is to prevent those corporations from treating a reduction in taxes just like any other reduction in expenses and use it to increase their margins and their profits? Or are profits a dirty word for you? Why would corporations not use this windfall for other business purposes - expansion, increase dividends, buy back stock, whatever? Why would any business look at that and say, "Gee, we need to keep our margins flat and our profits stable by passing this savings on to our customers." Can you answer that please?
