Indeed. We are told from an early age that the CEO of Boeing is trying to improve humanity but we are being told that about "our public servants". Gee... I wonder why that is?
Don't get me wrong. The CEO of Boeing might have good intentions and the elected politician might as well but we shouldn't kid ourselves.
I guess ostensibly you could say that it's because we elect public officials to make decisions on the public's behalf, and thus for the public good, but somehow we ignore the fact that they're just humans too, facing the same incentives as any other human.
