      eh sort of, most ceos either own a controlling interest or are directly elected by investors, calling it an employee position is kinda misleading.

      Okay but regardless of how you become a CEO, on paper, "CEO" is a job - it has responsibilities you are required to fulfill in order to be compensated

      sure but thier main job is to be a direct representative for the capitalist class.

      And a representative is a job description. It’s why the labor vs capital divide is problematic because it puts a CEO in the position of having oess theoretical power than a guy with a van with a craigslist ad offering to help someone move, he’s the owner if his company.

      That’s why my distinction on capital vs labor is dependent on whether their income stream stops if they stop working. Many (not ALL but probably most) of small business owners are workers to some extent, I would guess.

      Well, okay, but you're still saying the relative amount of money doesn't matter A retiree with a 401(k) is a "capitalist" while LeBron James (until such time as he retires) is a "worker" This doesn't really speak to what most people's concerns are re: "class"

      I mean does the "income stream" part actually matter? If I have no income, only wealth that I'm slowly spending - say I inherited $10 million from my dad and because I'm eccentric I put it all in a checking account and didn't invest any of it - am I a "worker" then

      You’re neither a worker or capitalist in that situation. Work would require you to do labor and capital would require interest on your wealth. Your no different than a guy blowing his paycheck at a bar, just for years at a time instead of hours.

      Okay so what if I did put my money on investments but the investments are generally bad I bought $10 million in stock but while the stock hasn't collapsed it's also never paid dividends and I pay my bills by slowly selling it

      Same situation as before - if your wealth stack is dwindling you’re not a capitalist. I’m talking about the generation of more wealth from ownership.

      Why is the number on the bank account so important Paper wealth is a social construct - one we invest a lot of meaning in, but in terms of the material way one lives one's life becomes largely irrelevant past the millionaire mark

          It’s not, I think that was the point of your “idle rich” person and I said I don’t think they’re a capitalist. It’s defined by their relation to labor, not by how rich they are. If they’re bank account is growing, someone is working for that money without getting paid.

          If the bank account is shrinking, it means the people providing labor for that person are getting compensated.
