They supposedly make decisions to constantly raise the returns for investors. I.E., profit, and stock price.

That's it. And when the investors lose confidence in that ability, the CEO "resigns," and gets an obscene "Retirement Package." on the way out. The "Golden Parachute." On top of "Retainment Bonuses" to not to quit while successful, other arbitrary bonuses, travel expenses, figuring out how to not raise wages for employees, suppressing unionization attempts, sacrificing infants to Mammon, having sex with underage girls/boys, etc.

This entire culture is obscene.
