CEOs and Corporate blokes are still technically working class. They have bosses to answer to. Their bosses have a large stake in real estate, manufacturing, oil, etc. Happy at home employees buy less and drive less. This is bad for their bosses. It goes way beyond the company's bottom line.
I assure you that the CEO of a large corporation like that has a very different relationship to the means of production than your average working class person. Especially in regard to how their income is generated.
Y'all need lessons in reading comprehension. I'm downright amazed anyone is reading my comment as sympathetic towards CEOS. I didn't say they are average, I said they were working class. As in they're not the 1%. They have to work a job to make money, at least for a time. Famous actors are working class, too. Hence the strikes. They may be out of touch with the average person but they still have a job to do. GD
Our reading comprehension is fine. Your understanding of class analysis just needs to extend beyond "do they have a job".
Chops busted, fellow adult. Chops busted.
You are very ignorant about what working class means
They own enough property that they are not, in fact, working class. They don't have to work for a living (any more), they choose to.
Bosses like locating in expensive cities because they have the income to buy property in those expensive cities, and rake in the capital gains that come from others locating in those expensive cities. They all stand to lose a lot if people move out of those expensive cities because the housing pyramid that supports the imaginary value of their property collapses.
