It's fucked that the author appears to support such an arrangement...
It's satire. The author is pointing out how morally reprehensible it is, using irony.
that's not satire. He unironically, disapprovingly, argues that this is the real state of the world.

Ii is the real state of the world, but I don't see any disapproval in the text.
