You underestimate their arrogance.

Arrogance has little to do with making these strategic considerations. If anything arrogance is a strategy that comes from dealing with things like backlash etc. The cause is not arrogant people, or people lacking self awareness because of arrogance. It's simple economics in a way.

It is arrogance in not thinking they have to fear the people, or the government.

It's the same reason our politicians are now openly corrupt.

the people

Who exactly is "the people"? What constitutes "the people"? Aren't the bosses part of "the people"?

the government

Are they not the government?
