His success in what? Do you even know who the guy is that's being discussed? He didn't do anything or create anything, I believe he just provided initial funding. He is actually a very bright guy that was making piles of money while studying at Harvard with stocks. Bright people are going to be bright and flourish anywhere in the world.

Success in India or China? You live under a rock? Those places are filled with billionaires making billions.

If the US wants to keep capital and investors in the country, then the US needs to create favorable business and tax conditions/laws for that to happen, not more absurd laws and increased taxes.
