I agree with you in general terms, but I think you're wrong in putting the blame entirely on those "at the helm". It's the financial system nature, the stock market's nature that's flawed. It's not enough to be doing good, not even very good, or extraordinarily good. You need to do better, year over year. This is the expectation of the investor - and the investor can be a ruthless hedge fund as well as a random Canadian pension fund, made of normal, non-greedy people who try to fight off inflation.
It's easy to hate on the CEOs and their eight-figure bonuses, but the fact, the way I see it, is that every person who buys stocks (directly or indirectly through a fund) hoping that such stock will increase in value is part of the bigger problem.
