The original transaction should be there to mine also,

Yeah, and whoever finds the next block gets the fee, instead of you.

It simply isn't in the interest of any particular miner (or pool).  The decision about transaction inclusion is made by each miner (or pool) individually; it's not some sort of thing that the miners collectively vote on "for the common good".
