So the poorest shouldn't feel "too comfortable" but the rich shouldn't feel too much pain?

Please compare and contrast:

Ben Carson, the secretary of the Housing and Urban Development, is reportedly obsessed with making sure low-income residents living in government-sponsored housing aren’t enjoying themselves too much.

A new report from the New York Times reveals that Carson this week visited a homeless shelter in Ohio and was “plainly happy” after he saw that it had “stacked dozens of bunk beds inside” and “purposefully did not provide televisions” so that residents there wouldn’t get too comfortable.

Carson obsessively makes sure that poor people who get government assistance don’t have things too good, the Times notes, because he believes that making life too comfortable for them would create a sense of dependence.

“A comfortable setting… would make somebody want to say: ‘I’ll just stay here. They will take care of me,'” Carson explained.

Robert H. Richards IV is a convicted child molester and great-grandson of chemical magnate Irénée du Pont and heir to the du Pont family fortune

In 2009, he entered a guilty plea and was convicted of raping his 3-year-old daughter, after the girl reported the abuse to her grandmother. Instead of serving out his eight-year prison sentence, the sentencing order signed by Delaware Superior Court Judge Jan R. Jurden said that the "defendant will not fare well" in prison and thus the eight-year sentence was suspended.

3. Flip that principle on its head

How strange that Dr. Carson, who makes a grand show of his moral principles, appears to have flipped a biblical principle on its head. In Exodus chapter 16, the story is about God feeding the children of Israel with manna in the wilderness, and the story is echoed by Paul in Two Corinthians (Trump nomenclature) chapter 8: One of the organizing principles of a godly society is to ensure that those who have gathered much do not have too much, and those who have little do not have too little.

Shame on you and your immoral ways, Dr. Carson.
