lol. On a serious note, I wrote the comment mainly because people ignore manslaughter, which is inexcusable. But also because a person that spends years in public office isn't there "for the public good". That's just rhetoric that gets people elected.

Enterprising startup founders, or even miscellaneous hackers working on interesting projects, do far more for the public good.
