Fuck, now I see they're a mix between Gandhi, Mother Teresa and UNICEF

Come on... money talks, it's as simple as this.

I have no issues with that, but trying to cover it with how fair and benevolent they're is ludicrous, it's just money speaking.

And as we're on the subject, I find funny how some people thinks this industry is made of ethical businessmen/women with a similar agenda of rights and duties, when reality is this industry (as well as any other) is filled with hypocrites who will stab you in the back and sell your children for a couple bucks. There are some exceptions, as in any other industry, but they're just that: exceptions.
