DMOZ is only broke if you think it is a commercial listing service. Since it isn't in any way shape or form a listing service, commercial or otherwise, the comment is invalid. Other organisations such as Yahoo have a different concept more along the lines you appear to want. There is a place for both, there is no point in us trying to do what they do, it is a totally different setup and mission, theirs being to make a profit. Pay them a visit, give them some cash, and they will give you a customer rep with a job description and a salary, and they will review your site within a specified period and list it if it meets their criteria. That is what they are paid to do. DMOZ editors on the other hand do not exist to review sites suggested by webmasters, we merely accept the suggestions as one possible source of material for our project. Thanks, we'll get around to it at our own pace.
