I do totally agree from a moral standpoint though, if I were to do a project like this, $50 is a tiny fraction of what I'd offer people. It's a tiny fraction of what I'd hope to offer _anyone_ working for my artistic vision, let alone the main talent. But I also know not everyone out there thinks like me, and sometimes artists are people I would otherwise call exploitive, immoral, or selfish, but there still remain cases where I believe the world was better off because of their art, even if they themselves were a total jerk.
I think almost any kind of media or art which makes many people more aware of what life is like for the 'underbelly' of society is probably still a good thing overall. Most of all, the last people I'd like making that decision for us are people who only have business incentives anyway, i.e. Google.
