Animal Jam needs money to stay running, and AJ memberships are a method in which AJHQ can earn money. If AJHQ were to remove memberships entirely, they'd lose a significant amount of money.

In addition, non-members don't pay for the game, and as a result, they aren't automatically entitled to new features. It seems silly to state that non-members have 'no rights' when AJHQ has given non-members access to various in-game mechanics, and has even let non-members use features that were previously members-only. Some of these features include the ability to play all of the adventures (excluding TFD) and the ability to change the color of items.

About your last point made, non-members can obtain many members-only items by trading, and there are quite a few non-member RIMs, as well. While it is more difficult for non-members to get 'rare' due to the fact that they cannot play The Forgotten Desert, it's not unheard of for non-members to get 'rare' in the current AJ rarity system.
