The real question is are we out from under their yolk, and this behaviour just a throwback to a lost system of extraterrestrial servitude? Or was the whole mechanism meant to produce babies in exchange for diamonds, silver, gold and platinum?

I think Limp Bizkit said it best:

“I did it all for the nookie
C'mon
The nookie
C'mon
So you can take that cookie”

With little inspection, you will, indeed, find that the cookie Mr. Durst is referring to, is in fact objects of material value. Supreme Galactic Confederacy dictator Xenu would be proud.

As a father who puts equal time into his children, maybe it explains why my wife in fact does not want diamonds or other such frivolties.
