The right wing majority on scotus legalizes bribery and criminalizes homelessness because to them, rich people deserve rights and poor people deserve nothing. If they were deserving they’d be rich.
It's the combination of believing "the world is zero-sum" and "the world is just (i.e. those who are rich deserve it, those who are poor deserve it)" that is the underpinning of right-wing politics. Which is why the New Deal was so powerful, and why the right wing hates it so much.
