Hi gerard,

Re: we are the best but our goal is to be better.

Thanks for clearing that up. And here I thought the goal was to concentrate the wealth of the nation in the hands of a small aristocratic elite who are moving the money to off-shore tax havens, leaving the rest of this nation's citizens holding an empty bag. How could I be so blind?

Or maybe the goal of the pharmaceutical industry is to create "better" maintenance drugs that create dependency rather than create "worse" vaccines which have limited profit potential.

Or maybe the goal of the petroleum industry is to suppress innovative renewable energy sources because there's no profit after the initial sale of a device that can power itself. And it's "better" to force people to continually "need" their fix of gasoline.

Is that sort of what you meant by "better"?
