Unsaturated fat amounts

Why are there such small amounts of unsaturated fats allotted in the nutrition section of MFP? I concentrate on keeping my saturated numbers low, but I am always way up on the unsaturated fats at the end of the day.

    There aren't small amounts allotted: the goal is actually 0, because there aren't any official guidelines on what the minimum should be. It's one of those goals where 'going over' is the goal (for example protein, vitamins...) rather than 'staying under' (saturated fats, sugar).
