Employees are just as stupid as the CEO. The CEO is an employee owner as well and has compensation very highly tied to company equity. There are advantages to employee ownership. Preventing bad business decisions is not one of them.

That same thing happens with accountants and lawyers. I’ve dealt with terrible of both that were just good enough to not get disbarred or lose their license. I don’t think you have a salient point here.
