You could say this about almost any profession. There are bankers who want to give people a chance to succeed, and there are inventors and artists driven solely by profit. To say whether or not a person can "contribute to better the condition of humanity" on the basis of their job is very short-sighted. If the only job someone can get is a dull, 9-5 office job, does that suddenly make them an insignificant person incapable of making a difference?
