The fact theres nothing to gain. 

Since US didn’t get rich by running mines that can make a fortune running on dying slaves, having a coup will destroy the economy and make everyone, including the soldiers themselves, poorer. 

This is generally true for developed countries, it is also why coups tend to happen in Africa where they do get rich running mines on dying slaves.
