You could also look at it as insurance against revolution. Keeping the disenfranchised rabble quiet so that there are not bloody riots on the doorsteps of the 1% 24/7, our obscenely boated prison system is explained by this motivation also. If you let the rabble get too hungry they get angry and difficult to control.
In other words, fork over the money or we'll kill you.
Liberal morality isn't pretty.
