The Monetarists bankroll her good intentions, when they don't have to. I think the Monetarists are patriots in their own way, and look out for the long term health of Ul'dah. I hope Lolorito gets some redemption down the line, I think he's a deeper character than we've seen so far.
That's all well and good, but if they were in charge, would they help, independent of the Sultana's good intentions? Or would they just do the bare minimum and continue furthering their own goals? Just because they're funding the Sultana's efforts now doesn't mean they would inherit her goodwill later.
There's no guarantee they'd support the refugees in the long term. Maintain the nation? Yeah, probably. But only insofar as it helps them to stay in power. I just don't see the monetarists - Lolorito included - going the extra mile.
Each man longs to pursue his dream. Each man is tortured by this dream, but the dream gives meaning to his life. Even if the dream ruins his life, man cannot allow himself to leave it behind. In this world, is man ever able to possess anything more solid, than a dream?
