Andrew Carnegie had his tombstone read "Here lies a man who knew how to enlist the service of better men than himself." He was arguably one of the most successful men of his age. He was the first employer to ever pay a salary of a million dollars per year (to Charles Schwab). President Bush is accused in a derisive way of surrounding himself with better men than himself. Why should we criticize him of what the great philanthropist Andrew Carnegie was so proud of himself for achieving?
