I've got friends who are social workers who solve real problems every day of the week. They aren't generally hated for it, though there are exceptions, like when a parent ends up losing custody due to child abuse.

Did you not think of any social workers because they aren't rich enough for you to notice them, or because you think the problems they solve aren't real enough?

I agree. Feet on the ground social workers go unnoticed and are agents of real help where is is needed. I should have said among high profile figures Musk is unique in his honest effort to save humanity.

While I don't believe Musk is honest[1], even if he were, I think Jimmy Carter and Dolly Parton have both made more honest efforts to save humanity.

(I'm assuming you don't mean "unique" in the sense that everyone is unique.)

[1] What do you think is the best example? How do you disentangle it from what appears to be half-assed efforts?

Demonstration of his efforts are lacking.
