At the time there was little balance between different classes. The lower and working classes were poor and often starving whilst the upper, aristocratic classes were able to implement taxes to take money from the poor.
Basically Robin Hood wanted to take money from those who had no need for it and give it to those in dire need. Although the moral of the story is not viable in modern welfare states and should not be applied.
