It’s still a person. Stop buying into euphemisms for person like “employee” and groups of people like “company”.
Very militaristic, simplistic fake world with hierarchy. Not a shock many winners in the post-world war economy were also fighters in world wars and our job memes echo the structure they had foisted upon them. How were they to make sense of their business if they weren’t at the top of the hierarchy with a rigid chain of command?
Society still has plenty of embedded post-war shell shock and Cold War paranoia in its collective limbic system given all the folks running the world the last few decades were kids in those eras.
Just like with religion before, a lot of effort is put to validation and preservation memory of the elders.
Prior to world wars 90% of workers were self employed. Many economic truisms are driven by contemporary nostalgia. Whole lot of sunk cost fallacy backing why we organize as we do.
