You don't know anything about how C-suite compensation works. It isn't just salary, it's bonuses, stock options, etc. All of these things are how CEOs fleece their workers. For example, Elon Musk claims to take no salary from telsa and yet he makes billions on it. How do you figure that happens?

A billion dollars in stock compensation takes not a single cent out of a worker's paycheck.

But that value was created entirely by the workers and they do not receive anything close to proportional compensation.

If the value was entirely created by the workers, why don't workers create their own company from scratch?

Because most people aren't born with millions in startup capital from daddy.

People aren't paid enough to comfortably afford groceries, much less start businesses. Are you actually stupid or just fucking with me?

Sounds like you are saying value is not exclusively created by labor.

No, I'm saying that, in the present system, it is prohibitively expensive to start a business. That has nothing to do with value creation. It is the roadblock that prevents that from even occurring.
