Maybe they would, if the sociopaths wouldn't assimilate many of those "successes". I consider a certain number of successful businesses to be a relatively stable statistical certainty in a society which provides the necessary environment for them (stable legislation, infrastructure, workers, a market to sell stuff etc.). The sociopaths now don't increase the total number of these successes, but they tilt the distribution of successes towards themselves as a group, thereby making non-sociopaths less likely to achieve a success.
