Maybe it should. The fact that so many people is business successful while being uninformed and mostly incompetent is a problem. The current USA's president is a really good example on this. A general immoral behavior, and lack of knowledge allows him to accumulate wealth. And that's bad for a society, as it means that it is rewarding the wrong behaviors.
In a lot smaller scale I have seen this make business fail. In one company sales people were getting money on every sale, so they had their long time customers (company customers really) and had to do nothing to keep earning a big salary. The company changed this policy to bigger bonuses but just associated with new customers. This was a game changer. If you reward the correct behavior, you get it.
While we reward lobby creation, abuse of the legal system, etc. that's what makes rich people and that's what we get.
