My hunch is that cost of interstellar travel is so prohibitively high that advanced intelligence at most branches out to only a small bubble of stars surrounding their home system. Once that's done, the species is basically safe from extinction and it's not like resources could reliably be sent back to enrich a central authority or alleviate any resource shortage (which is unlikely to be exhausted).
