What do Google think about these sites? Do they ban them or do they just penalize them for duplicate content?
Would it be stupid to have adsens on them? (this is not adult sites)

I'm running loads of mainstream sites built this way. One problem is duplicate content, you won't be banned, but it's very likely that you'll end up with 5000 pages indexed and 5 left a month later and no traffic.
Putting adsense on them is not a problem, as long as the products are compilant to google's guidelines.
2 things that would help alot: Make those descriptions unique, make sure to avoid any footprints that hint to the sponsor. Many people spend alot of time on making the content look unique and forget about the footprints that make it VERY easy to identify a "thin afiiliate" site.
