Am I buying a baby?

I am looking at so many agencies and today it dawned on me that there are "little differences" between not-for-profit agencies and a for-profit agencies. The for-profit agencies are much easier to get on the phone, seem better staffed and have nice easy to read materials. They have a lower adoptive parent to birth mother ratio. However, if I go with a for-profit agency I am pretty sure I will be spending more money on expenses for the birth mothers because their website advertise free housing to birth mothers. I'm getting a slightly sleezy feeling that I would be essentially buying a baby through the for profit agencies by paying for birthmother expenses which she would have to pay anyway even if she were not pregnant. I don't mean to be rude in bringing this up but it is something that is concerning me today.
