CEOs are the most leeching of scum the human race has ever made

At least when a king or empire extracted money - they'd invest it back into the kingdom in some way shape or form.

CEOs have zero reason to invest back into the labour pool.

They really did not. You may have had one or two that wanted more for the country. Most were just greedy shithouses who could not care at all. Unless they needed bodies for a war OFC, then the dynamic changes.
