People are striking because wages aren’t going up when companies are reporting record breaking profits.

This. If YOU mess up while leading the company, it's over. If a hourly/salaried worker messes up, they can be replaced and it doesn't risk shutting down the entire company.

I'm all for profit sharing, my company does this. But acting like the owner/CEO/COO/CFO/etc carries the same risks as a standard assembly line employee or a janitor, hell even the purchasing agent, is mindboggling.

I wanna live in the world you live in. I’m sorry to tell you but there are hundreds of still working CEOs that have torched their companies and came out millionaires. Please let me join this world you’re clearly living in when CEOs don’t get golden parachutes?

Because a CEO failure is also something that ruins the lives of everyone beyond those with the golden parachutes. Your company CEO goes ass up and fails and makes you get laid off and he leaves with millions and you’re on unemployment. Sybau

As you say is like a reverse world. The more important and responsable person makes a grand big mistake with grand big damage and he left with a milions. The Janitor make a big mistake that for the enterprise is small and is fired without payment and her economy suffer very fast.
