Better than other men

Context: "The problem I see is that business thinking seems to lead to 'going it alone' rather than 'we're in this together' thinking. I may be wrong about it, but that's how it looks to me."

When a man earn thirty, forty million dollars a years as CEO of a major corporation, is this not compelling testimony that he is *better* than other men? You may not think so (I certainly don't), but *someone* does — someone with a lot of money.

I am not, of course, speaking of Donald Trump, who failed at every business he attempted. ("The Apprentice" was worse than fiction. The show lovingly misrepresented this chronic failure, this bratty selfish man-child, as America's (and thus the world's) smartest, toughest, most decisive business titan.)
