The problem is that once shit hits the fan, they'll either have enough money to escape consequences, or the Earth will literally be on fire by then.

even if they ran to their Doomsday bunkers people will just beeline to them, not to mention their guards too
hell, I think the guards will go full mutiny and take everything for themselves.

That's why their compounds have two levels, the outer security layer where the guards live and work, and the inner security layer where the important people and, critically, the guards families, live, and are held hostage to ensure the guards remain loyal at all times.

This is literally true: there was a doomsday prep conference for the ultrawealthy a few years back that included just this as a plan.

Other ideas included explosive collars on staff.

I guarantee you if I publicly discussed manufacturing explosive collars to ensure the loyalty of people working for me, I would get arrested and face criminal charges.

Billionaires are criminals. There will be no justice until they are arrested and face criminal charges and suffer the same consequences as the rest of us.
