They don't though, not at the top top. The goal for some is to remove capitalism after the chaff has been thoroughly separated from the wheat.

They suffer the working class and petit bourgeois because they need people to make their things, contribute to their lives in some alienated way; but if they believe they can get those things without the lower classes' stink all over, then they'll eliminate the working class.

They no longer need assistants or secretaries thanks to LLMs allowing natural language interfaces to software. They keep getting sold on the idea of robot workers and maintenance robots to fix the robots and such. They think it's close to time to end it.
