Most of work, especially the corporate work that pays well reliably, isn't improving the world or helping people. It's helping individuals within companies in their campaigns for more money and more status. It's helping one middle manager become a director, or one executive beat out another one. The problem is that (a) 90% of corporate executives are completely worthless, overpaid deadweight, and (b) people have no choice where they land (under closed allocation) and have no say which boss (i.e. private-sector politician) to throw their muscle behind.
It really is amazing how much of the work done by the highest-paid people is completely unnecessary, if not counterproductive.
