Absolutely! Before capitalism, we had company owners and workers. Sometimes, those were even the same role. Now?

  • Owners
  • Shareholders
  • Directors
  • Chief Executive Officers
  • Chief Technology Officers
  • Chief Financial Officers
  • Chief Business Development Officers
  • Chief Operating Officers
  • Chief Marketing Officer
  • Chief Information Officers
  • Chief Communications Officers
  • Chief Legal Officers
  • Chief Risk Officers
  • Chief Creative Officers
  • Chief Compliance Officers
  • Chief Audit Executives
  • Chief Diversity Officers
  • Chief Human Resources Officers
  • Middle Management
  • Wage Slaves
  • "Independent" Contractors; and
  • Undocumented Below-Minimum-Wage Workers

See! Lots of innovation /s
