Bill Burr has this take that corporations are the mobsters of yore, they just kneecap or whack people in different ways because the law is on their side now. Until it’s not.

Well... A successful CEO of a major corporation. I can only imagine there might be some decent CEO's out there.

...none come to mind, but I think they can exist.

Technically all it takes to be a CEO is to spend a couple hundred dollars to register a corporation. You don't need employees or anything. Generally the focus has been on CEOs of publicly traded companies, since the "CEO" of some local business probably isn't making millions of dollars.
