On the contrary, it's mainstream economics that a lot of internal corporate decisions are made for the welfare of employees/managers rather than shareholders.

Sure, that's an example of principal/agent problems. Those happen all the time and are very real.

But to claim that, there would be a vast conspiracy tobtake all of that money on a wide enough scale to make everyone in the USA overpaid is where the thing breaks down.

Not one vast conspiracy. Just many people in similar positions with similar incentives acting in similar ways.
