I think the implication was that the Glukkons are not so much bad as misunderstood. After all, they have to pay the rent and feed themselves, as does anyone. The means by which they acquire that money is merely born through the identities society puts into them, as is their drive towards greed and reputation. Oddworld is meant to be about blurring the lines between good and evil, while providing some pretty good parodies of contemporary issues such as consumerism, the environment etc.
