That's just bragging. We all do work that benefits people. Not always so directly - where did that medical equipment come from? Who designed it? What tools did they use? Who worked on them? How were they transported? Who provided those services? Who supported the staff working at the shipping companies? Just being on the coalface doesn't mean you're more important than everybody else in the chain.

Maybe your ideas contradict your actions. I'm only talking about your statements, not what you've done.
