Kinda like that undercover boss show where they tried to show how great these CEOs are by throwing some money at specific employees that are struggling, ignoring that better leadership and compensation that lines up better with the value being created would improve things for all of the other struggling employees that weren't lucky enough to be assigned to boss babysitting duty (assuming the whole thing wasn't staged entirely).
It probably wasn't staged sadly. Those privileged billionaires saw the struggling employees as the exception, not the rule.
I know it wasn't because there was an episode where an employee disillusioned with life and struggling with drug addiction was fired "As a favor to him", and it was framed as being super wholesome, even though now that guy without any financial support and no way to get help will likely relapse harder than he ever has..

How would you even frame that as a favour?
"It gives you the chance to put your life back in order" and other empty platitudes that ignore what's really happening.

I understand that you're quoting. This is no criticism of your comment. I consider myself fairly adept at imitating the mental gymnastics. But here, I'm at a loss.
The rich do not think critically about the world around them. They have never had to fight for anything in their lives, all their success is just handed to them. They've never had to make hard decisions.
This means that they have never had to be introspective or give any thought to how their actions affect those around them.
They are simply disillusioned because their wealth puts a barrier between them and the harshness of life.
So they do not recognize suffering when they see it, and when they do they blame the victim because they know that this couldn't happen to them, and that means it doesn't happen to anybody worthwhile.
I would understand a boss going undercover to investigate where things are least efficient and whether their subordinates are lying about safety violations at a lower cost than getting an actual investigation.
The word "subordinates" disgusts me.
Luckily I've never had to work with someone who felt they were above the other members of their team.
Subordinate has a lot of implications, and typically I only hear it used to talk about people working for the bad guy....
