Most of the upper class have residences in places you happened to mention, as well as less expensive locales. Whether we like it or not, he who has the gold makes the rules. The corporate kings are spreading their wealth (elsewhere). Be careful who you punish and for what purpose? If you and I depend on the financial exchange of those who invest in the world economy, then we have to hope and expect that the money 'exchangers' play by similar and more fair international rules. Before 9/11, the princes, sheiks, and professional gamblers from all over the world used the American business models with cash flow to capitalize on US interests. Everything has changed dramatically in a more open market.
