TL;DR: people who get things "for free" are anathema to the right wing. Everything must be earned.
More specifically, the core ideology is that the world is meritocratic. Everyone gets what they deserve through good choices. If you're "unsuccessful" then you made poor choices and therefore don't deserve to be helped by people who made good choices.
