Why can't a question be in more than one section?

If the point of asking a question on this site is to get answers (preferably many…so that you have a lot to choose from), then why are we askers so limited in where we can ask our questions. I can think of several questions that could go in both general and social…and had I been able to ask in both sections, I’d probably get better and more answers. I love this site, as I’ve been a member since the get go…however, I am really annoyed with this and the way mods handle these type of issues.
