Plenty of people probably did, but the ones that don't are the ones that stand out, so they're the ones we know. Nobody cares about the guy who made a billion dollars and fucked off somewhere; even if they're still a blight on the country with that much wealth, we've got bigger fish to fry.

Tom is the exact model of how I want to see people get rich. He got his bag and then disappeared off the face of the planet. He's not in politics trying to enact a cyberpunk state. He's not in the news every day telling you that if you give your kids a measles shot you're performing the work of the devil. He's off on a beach somewhere taking photos because he loves it, not bothering a soul. Tom is an alright dude and I have no problems with him.
