In places like Vietnam and China, billionaires aren't the "apex predators". The Party leadership is.

That is why they can get the death penalty.

Don't get it twisted man. At least in China, they kill party leadership too. In fact, just to make sure no one is holding out on them, they'll take out your wife and mistress too.

In China, the party is almighty, but it won't hesitate to eat it's young, it's parents, or even it's mate.
