Will the Bad Boys of India ever be punished?

 The bank was robbed? Why did nobody stop it? If the guards were on it, is it the robber to blame or the buffoon that hired them without any considerations whatsoever? At what point do the robbed ones take some responsibility? Or does the onus lie completely upon the robber? Had the bank vaults been totally open and out in the open, and the robbers had casually walked in, scooped a few single-digit billions in changed as one does and walked out would they have been under as much scrutiny? Is being guided by an insider, and being given keys to the kingdom not the same?

Why were the locks non-existent, the employees so easily bribable, the system so easy to break into? Why did the international banks trust the dinky national bank that had already been in hot water in the past for losing billions? Who was to be on the hook for the two billion and change, that's in freedom units too, that had gone missing to the tax havens in the Caribbean and Switzerland? If the Indian aam aadmi was mad, should they not be mad equally at those that are assisting in the corruption and the looting? Why does nobody do anything about those offshore tax havens that will hide any amount of dark money as long as they're paid enough? Are they not complicit? Does responsibility disappear when it's distributed so wide nobody cares? Is that the only way one's going to be able to rob in the question? Is the way of the future robber one of diluting the involvement, so what's illegal becomes immoral, what's immoral gets into the gray area and everyone who's anyone's involved and the old boys' club decides you know what nobody cares lets just shut up about it?

Is this era of the reverse Robin Hood, one who steals from the poor out in the open, enriches themselves and their rich friends and makes a run for far away, far enough to be not caught? Are there literally no legal avenues, international or otherwise, black-and-white or those in the greys, that will allow the victims recovery and relief to the victims, or has that become a joke now? Is modern finance really that corrupt that immoral that it doesn't care about the fact that it's mostly based on trust beyond everything else, and if the little guy -- and gal -- stops believing in it, they are done for?

Why do the Bad Boy Billionaires of India -- those from the Netflix show that inspired this piece -- still roam free like embarrassed Lions in their forest? Why does the little guy who steals a few hundred here and there gets fucked over for life, figuratively and unfortunately literally as that poor clerk's story from the jeweler scammer shows, while the rich asshole who truly screws over the livelihoods and lives of millions not even get touched? It's not even about 'unfairness of the world' is it? Is it not about a system of trading and business that seems to have forgotten what its founding principles are, and may soon see the day when nobody trusts it anymore? Are they really daring governments and international agencies to form an alternative system that has smaller -- nor no -- pet escape doors for the rich and the fabulously corrupt?

Are they stupid, or just so fattened with greed and avarice they just don't give a fuck anymore? Have they got no decency? Is there any hint of humanity or ethics left inside them or do they somehow dissipate the responsibility into the larger system, always convincing themselves they're just a cog in a machine that's fundamentally broken, there's nothing nobody can do about it, as they actively oil and run it, and profit handsomely off of it?

Do they not have fear? Can they not see that as global wealth increases, as the global middle class rises, so does their expectation of rule of law and justice, and a thumbs-down at them is showing your buttocks do your dearest believers? That the system only works when everybody believes there's a fair chance they're going to make it one day if they play by the rules, the rulebreakers get punished, and that actions have consequences? Does not not occur to them that breaking the action-consequence relationship is bad, that a few rulebreakings are acceptable but when your entire base begins believing the system is fucked and is to be taken advantage of it breaks down and you can't top off the cream anymore? How disappointing must those idiotic savants be?

Am I recommending the show, Bad Boy Billionaires of India? You would think so, would you, with all that I've written? Why haven't I explored this format more?
