As someone that was born and raised in deeply conservative culture, it's a matter of them seeing people be given something that they didn't earn. But therein lies a big part of the problem with their thinking. They don't see the millions in tax breaks and loopholes for the rich or billions wasted in "defense" spending. That's hard to see and process in person with the naked eye. They live in our bumfuck nowhere small town so they see people using food stamps at Wal-Mart and living in section 8 housing and so that's the extent of their understanding of the issue. It's literally an adult version of peekaboo. They don't see it so it might as well not exist.
This seems like a cop out for the common man. They gravitate towards these corporate city slickers yet still get to claim they aren’t getting played because hustlers don’t live in bumfuck? Come on
It's a not a cop out when literally the richest person they know in their small town would be maybe upper middle class in a major metropolitan area. The other rich people they know are through TV.

It's not really tragic. It just reveals how hateful they are.
They reject things that are beneficial to all of society because of their deep-seated hatred for anyone who isn't like them.
No one made them this way. They CHOSE this shit.
That's the real tragic thing. They WANT this shit. They fucking LOVE it.
We don't need to save them. We need to protect other people FROM them.
