Eh... I doubt it's rooted in wanting the poor to be happy poor. More that rich villains, especially rich adult villains, are one of the simplest types of villains to write. Barring legit emotional or mental disorders or disabilities, which usually aren't included, there's no way to punch down to a billionaire. So the audience is free to hate this character who theoretically needs nothing from anyone else and is set for life, and can rest assured that any evil actions they take are them choosing to act like a dick when they don't have to. Like who's gonna pressure them? The commoners? lol

Real life is more complicated than that, of course, and if it's idk rich ten year olds with awful parents like Draco in real life, that's complicated even further. But it being so common in fiction probably has more to do with it being just... easy, than any conspiracy
