No they aren't, they are paying to ride the AirTrain service from the HB station.

Yes they are. AirTrain from HB is the on-property free circulator. There is no reason they should have to pay for it. No one else has to pay for it, at JFK, or in the rest of the country.

Not really.

Yes it is! It is favoring all other modes of transit to the airport (including cars and taxis and buses) over one of the best ways to get there, the (A).

And why should the NYCT subway peaope using AirTrain from Sutpin Blvd have to pay?

I already explained this. The Jamaica branch is a rapid transit line that brings you from a downtown area (Jamaica) all the way to and onto Airport property. There's nothing wrong with charging for riding that. And EVERYONE who rides it has to pay!

whereas if A people didn't have to pay, it wouldn't be fair to the E (and J) people.

That's not true at all. E/J people would be fairly paying for the service of being brought to and onto airport property. A passengers receive no such service, and should not be charged for it. They are taking the same free circulator that everyone else is.
