If an industry is doing some good, but the good they are doing is in the spirit of making them money, is it still doing good? Is a show like Extreme Makeover exploiting the lives of struggling people even as it “helps” them?

I would like to know the tax ramifications of being helped by Extreme Makeover.

I’ve also heard rumors that the construction is shoddy and that while it looks good on screen, in real life, the things they do fall apart quickly.

But my critique here really isn’t about Extreme Makeover, but rather does making a profit off of helping people minimize the help?

Plus, programs like EM don’t address the systemic issues that put people into dire straits to begin.

Now that would be a radical show!
