Maybe billionaires should get a real job that contributes.

    No one in this thread argued that it was easy. I can imagine that it can be quite stressful. However, the notion that we live in a meritocracy, where only the most capable are to become CEOs is a full-on myth.

          Nothing changes. Full on delusions here still. Even in your communist utopia someone needs to run the company.

                It’s an attainable skill. Seriously: You think that CEOs are the modern equivalent of god emperors and I am the ideologically blinded?

                That’s literally the same thing people claimed that kings are: rulers that the people need because the latter is too dumb for their daily affairs.

                  Did I say good emperor? No it’s not an easy set of skills to be good at or get yourself into or build the network to be successful. If it was you wouldn’t see memes about shitty coworkers or shitty middle managers with egos. You are trying to get sometimes hundreds of thousands employees and multiple business lines working in order. You have to work with finance, marking, supply chain, and delivery while being a public face to the company at the top. It’s hard, it’s stressful, and it’s not easy. I’d support stricter laws about equity. I’m just not dumb about how hard the jobs is at even a medium sized business. You’ve invented some random argument about gods and kings, think about that insane jump.

                    It’s a great defens that you’re employing: if you only write ambiguous, sarcastic crap, you show less of your actual beliefs to have made arguments against.

                    Too dumb that no one take you serious afterwards.

        I get that working at McDonalds, you are highly disconencted from the management/executive leaderships. But this type of claim is sheer ignorance and shows a complete lack of any business knowledge or skillset.

        you can argue that the average CEO is overpaid or that they’re propped up with too much power. But they are definitely doing work and it is a real job.

          What a fantastic story you have invented.

            So you don’t actually have a clue what you’re talking about and just want to throw fallacious comments and arguments?

            What are ytou? 12? did you flunk highschool? I’d love to explain and teach you while you’re wrong, but I don’t have the patience to start at a kindergarten level.
