What a bunch of garbage. So we are to honor politicians who changed the world, but not great inventors and businessmen who did the same? To honor Carnegie, Ford, Edison, and Jobs is not to shortchange Jefferson, Adams, and Madison. I don’t even use Apple products, but I can recognize and admire the vision and genius of a Jobs. Why do you feel a need to tear him down? If you cannot recognize the great moral virtue that it takes to be a successful, non-subsidized, non-bailed-out businessman, then you need to read Atlas Shrugged.
Regarding Carnegie — and J.P. Morgan, John Rockefeller and the other great businessmen of their day: No, people do not light candles at their graves. But they should.
