Not many millionaires are getting arrested in general, due to the availability of lawyers and so on.

The US support might be very relevant for a war reported captured by ISIS.

But most millionaires are not going to be in those locations and/or able to afford good private security.

Ok, but they're also not very sympathetic. I don't feel sorry for anybody who can afford private security that he has to pay if he wants to hang on to the benefits of US citizenship.

So "so?" is my reaction to wailing about their being taxed.

They're not wailing, they're leaving for better service elsewhere.

Great, then everybody's happy. What's the problem?
