It’s not that CEOs just happened to be evil. It’s a material conditions problem. Anyone who becomes a CEO has tremendous pressure to become evil. You could even argue that the steps you would have to take to become a CEO are morally problematic. So the pressure to become evil starts early. As soon as you enter the job market.
Yes, but the difference is with politics things are more transparent and we have a choice. We can vote. With CEOs, we don’t get a choice and no one really knows what goes on up there.

Same for high politics btw.

Which is why we normally argue for democracy. If everybody acts collectively in their own interest, we all win.
Yeah, it’s a ‘trade’.
The hand fits the glove
