All an “Ethical” CEO would have to do is reduce the profits to 25%, and invest the rest into employee pay and benefits.

No, all an 'ethical' CEO would have to do is provide workers with the full surplus value produced by their labor. Otherwise he can get put into the woodchipper 75% faster as thanks for him stealing only 25% of my existence.
