is this recall program merely a scam to make the dealers money?
I'm not quite sure what you mean by the first 5 sentences - more background on it is needed.

Is this a scam? Of course not

Does the article in your owners manual regarding releasing the key manually through the steering column housing, address the issue with releasing your key?

OR, just call the dealer and whine about your fear of death from the faulty equipment and they will provide a loaner until it's fixed.

What the heck do either of Richard Leininger's post have to do with the topic of this thread?

Sounds to me like we have another uninformed "blame GM" type here.
