I was wondering how a business could continue to operate post Pandemic Shutdown if they were too greedy about cooking the books. You couldn't justify profits, or even operating expenses at all in some cases. But the obvious answer lies in Government bailout money.
I'd bet blood a good share of bailouts protected shady companies that our Congressmen and Senators had stakes in.

As rich as he is, he wasn't rich enough to have not lost money. There were plenty of enormously powerful investors in FTX. Blackrock, for example. If you think they lost substantial sums of money and Sam Bankman-Fried is still drawing breath then I've got some NFTs if you're interested in buying.

We have guns in the UK but most of them are used for hunting reasons. Like shooting at birds in the sky, or just simply target practice. We have a bigger issue with knife crime than gun crime.
I'm sure Blackrock wouldn't outright murder someone for making them go broke.
It's not like people have done that for far less.

The US simply can not out compete anyone, all they can do is blow people up. Until the money dries up supporting all these stupid forever wars.
