They don’t think of it that way. They think “we are paying this person for what I know is a tough job and the value they bring to it.” Even though they are definitely colluding. Boeing’s board is probably one of the most egregious examples. Dave Calhoun let a door plug fall off and abandoned two people in space, but he still got a huge severance package. Gross.

They don’t think of it that way in public, you mean. I’m sure they’re laughing their asses off behind closed doors, though.
