That's...a rather conflicting message.  Also not true.

I don't see how it's either conflicting or not true.
If you take away more than you give back, you are not solving the problem, it's better than not doing it, but it's not solving anything.
I'm not blaming them for it as well, even if it ends up being an actual charity act and not a scheme, they still have no obligation on doing it.

I'm not against capitalism right now, I don't see where you get that from.

Well, what has me confused is why you say they are "not solving the problem in the slightest" when you imply that they would be solving the problem if they gave away all of their money instead of some of it.  Logically, if they gave away half of their money, wouldn't they be halfway to solving it?  So when you said "not in the slightest" I figured you must mean that the money they were giving away wasn't even going in the direction of solving the problem, which is VGPolyglot's complaint.
