Why does Linux require that a user be root/using sudo/specifically authorized per mount in order to mount something? It seems like the decision as to whether to allow a user to mount something should be based on their access rights to the source volume/network share and to the mount point.

I'm trying to mount my vbox shared folder every time my ubuntu starts.
So, I added an entry on /etc/init with this:
description "mount vboxsf Desktop"
start on startup
task
exec mount -t vboxsf Desktop /var/www/shared
Seems to work, except by the fact that all the files are owned by "root", and I don't have permission to write on the folder (neither chmod nor chown seems to be working).
Today when i try to ssh into server, i get permission denied. (same for sftp) Ut used to work well before. didn't change any server setting, except was trying to modify a few folders chown permission.
Root user can ssh/sftp without problem.
Any expert can help? thx

Amazon EC2-instance:
I made a user 'admin' and copied ec2-user's keys with proper permission.
After successful login, i tried to do sudo su for root access, it says 'admin is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.'
However i can do sudo su with ec2-user account and can gain root access.
What is sudoer file?
I'm using Network Manager to connect to a secure wireless network on a publicly accessible kiosk machine.
The problem is, if the user manages to get to the desktop, the nm-applet is accessible by a non-root user. So a user can simply right click on a tray icon, edit connection settings and see the credentials for the wireless network in plain text.
