    It’s all about motivations. Are they motivated first by the performance of the business, or by class warfare? Only the latter adequately explains observed behavior.

      None of the executives are motivated first by class warfare. They’re motivated by short term share value increases - which invariably causes the kind of pains which pushes everyone towards class warfare, IMO.

        Some, not all. CEOs are people (sorta) with their own flaws and prejudices. Elon is, I believe, a clear example of a billionaire putting class warfare first. That would match his behavior perfectly.
