I think we need a movie about a band of Resistance fighters that are brought together to steal the technical plans for Starkiller base. then it would all make sense.
A lot of this stuff is being covered in the Aftermath books and the latest Princess Leia book (which are all really badly written).

But basically the First Order financed using the Criminal underworld that had risen to prominence when the Empire fell.
