Why stop at CEOs? The real power within corporations is the boards and investment groups - they decide who to hire into the executive, what their goals are and what their incentives to meet those goals will be.

Executives are the upper middle class, trying to get their retirement sorted. Around the same class as our politicians. Definitely culpable, but not the root cause.

Boards are stocked with the real nepo babies / Sith Lords. Well connected rich idiots who have nothing to offer the world other than than misdirected entitled rage and misanthropy.

Maybe we just make it asset tested. Everyone with a net worth > $5m gets the guillotine

Over $1B gets a golden pineapple. Roll a dice to select hole.

Turn it into a reality show where people can vote and we have ourselves a winner!

We could build ourselves a round stadium and pit them against wild animals for family entertainment!
