Through decades of corporate greed, production has become almost entirely separated from capital, meaning that executives (and higher-ups) are no longer able to understand the nature of the businesses they are growing.
By not actively participating in the creation of the labor that enriches them, they are unable to truly understand trends within their business, because they’re only aware of how it works on the most distant level.
And because they do not participate, they do not appreciate *profit* — they only appreciate *more profit than they previously had.*
