Studies have shown that if you hinder popular suicide methods like bridges, less people commit suicide. The public is convinced that suicidal people will find any way to commit suicide but it seems for many it is a product of a build up over time and an opportunity. Take away that opportunity and many people end up finding relief. So the government can't enact any measures because the public won't support it, but life insurance companies know it works so they do it anyway.
