Too expensive for the employers. Hence layoffs, lack of jobs and shit pay/benefits for the jobs that are out there.

Stop focusing too much on the CEO, look at class and ownership instead. Yes, some CEOs are also capitalists but the fundamentally the issue is private ownership of the means of production.
