Hi there.

Wikia chooses to allow people to start a wikia for any subject they like. This sort of makes sense, as the subject does not tell you if the wiki is good or bad. You can have a bad wiki on any subject. So really the answer to your question is that "bad wikis" are allowed to be created because there is no way to tell whether a wiki is going to be good or bad before it is made.

Once people start filling in content there is still no "final" status for the wiki; a good wiki can become filled with spam or irrelevant content if it is not taken care of. A "bad" wiki can be cleaned up and rejuvenated by someone with the interest. So even once it has been created, there's no real reason to close a "bad" wikia unless it is violating our terms of use.

And Wikia's servers/money are there to give everybody that chance to create their own wikia and make of it what they can.
