so what? valid logic should make sense in every scenario right?

There's usually more than one valid argument in every scenario not just one. It obviously depends on your own personal point of view. Mine is that over 1300 people died in that earthquake but none of them are getting the same kind of respect that this man has gotten. It doesn't mean he doesn't deserve any respect or doesn't deserve to be remembered. But why cant all of them get their own short blurb about them in this case? Why do they have to be forgotten while one man who worked for a very well known company gets the attention? Of course it’s a loss but the deaths of all the other people are also losses. What if one of them was a great doctor? We have then lost someone who saves lives every day. A mother? She would no longer be able to take care of her family. Everyone is important and has a purpose in life and with their death comes loss. So called “popularity” shouldn't decide who gets to be recognized after they died, only the good deeds they did.

stop stating the obvious :P i know when you have more money you are rich and when you have reputation you are known. so you're saying we should work hard to be popular and rich? i get the rich part but why popular so you can be known after you're dead like this dude? yes money has power over everything, that's what's wrong with society!

    The point is not to glorify one person over everyone else.
    The article makes it seem his life was more valuable and noteworthy.
    Also, this was my own opinion, you can agree if you want and not agree at all!
    some agreed with me some didn't, the respectful thing to do is accept each others opinions even though we don't agree. :)

    The point is what you proposed is impossible.
