They
DO pay extra for that special privilege (whether it's directly via higher 1st class ticket prices, or via frequent-flyer upgrades). The individual or company pays the airlines for that privilege, the airlines pay the airport to accommodate that privilege.
It seems that you are confused as to what the "service rendered" is though. It is NOT the screening itself. It is the expedited matter in which that screening takes place. Now if the screening itself was different for first class passengers (say, if they weren't required to take their shoes off when all the other passengers were), then there would be a problem.
