sharePeople want what they can't have. Some people like being treated like dirt.
shareIt's an extension of Smither's sychopancy... It's the next step beyond servile flattery... You see this in the corporate world and in politics a lot...
shareBecause it's funny, that's why.

shareWow! The things you learn from this site. I just Googled it, as I'm no Simpsons expert and it said,
'It was revealed in a flashback that he was married to a woman once, but the two split up when Mr. Burns came between them. Smithers is shown to have a passionate and deep love for Mr. Burns, and his sexual orientation has been characterized by the writers of the show as "Burns-sexual".'
It's Money, Honey. Burns makes $$ faster than my local electrical utility, and Smithers wants a taste of it. It's called Human Nature. Good looking women get it, and rich men get it.
