It’s amazingly counter intuitive when you think about it … the worse the economy gets, the more we reward those top executives that are basically steering the ship.
It’s like hiring the worst drunken sailors to pilot your massive cargo ship through the Suez Canal and then wondering why everything keeps running aground and blocking development everywhere.
And it looks like wealthy elites and corporations just don’t care … they’ll keep hiring drunken sailors because they keep wanting to buy bigger boats that can carry more gold than before because it makes them feel richer. Then everyone asks confused as to why the boat loads of gold never make it to port.
I think it’s important to look at this situation from class perspective. The economy is getting worse for the working class, but the capital owning class is doing great. The primary job of the top executives is to increase profits for capitalists, and they’re doing that job well.
