They're the Boyles. They have to maintain their reputation, and the aristocrats do that by showing off to one another. They have to let the others know that they still have power, despite the hard times (which they're actually benefitting from because of the rat lights), or else they risk losing their power. I mean, it's all an illusion anyway, since nobody at the party is actually happy, but their power is what they have, and they intend to keep it. I don't really think any of the Boyle women deserve to be killed or raped because of it.

Plus you never know--they could be helping people out, but I highly doubt it.
