maybe renaming a ceo position in order to avoid caps on compensation can be understood as just manoevering for material advantage, but it can also be understood as an act of deception in itself.
kinda in the way that a corporation passing it's liquidity through a network of offshore accounts in order to manipulate its tax rates or for other purposes is deceptive, even if it's legal.
more generally, you'd think people would recognize the severity of the situation we're in and kinda work within that rather than working out ways to reconfigure job titles in order to keep maximum income flowing to themselves.
but maybe thinking that way is beyond the scope of what one should expect under this form of capitalism from those who benefit from the way the system is organized.
but if that's the case, the problems that organization is moving through are more fundamental that any of us think.
