They are contributing to the long term stability and prosperity of the society that provided the very environment that enabled them establish their wealth in the first place. Pay it forward as it were.

Unfortunately many people don't appear to think like that. Or are willfully blind/ ignorant. Take your pick.

These all are good words but you cannot sweet talk millionaires and billionaires into investing and keeping money in the country.

A bit of simple math is needed to supplement decisions in terms of return on investment.

Overbloated government spending and useless wars are not a good arguments either.

If government cannot manage their budgets well, why would people who can manage their budgets better should listen?
