What Apple and Google owes to America? Everything...yet that doesn't stop them evading some taxes, much more than Saverin.
That corporations in America don't pay their share is not the issue. Its an issue, but not the issue.
So we put one individual on the wall, but close our eyes when it comes to corporations which are doing the same thing more or less?
You are committing an argumentative fallacy. That other wrongs are being committed does not detract from the wrong being talked about.
Saverin is paying his taxes.
Soap operas on HN heh? As long as he is a law abiding citizen I don't see what business anyone has with what he does or where he lives.
The OP isn't making a legal argument, he's making a moral/ethical argument.

> he had some pretty terrible ideas for Facebook, including his plan to show interstitial ads when you went to add a friend
For anyone who doesn't know the what term "interstitial" means (I didn't!):
I wonder if this was something he actually tried to get implemented, or simply threw out there when they were thinking up monetisation strategies - if the latter it seems a bit harsh to pick him up on it!
For anyone who doesn't know the what term "interstitial" means (I didn't!):
interstitials are web pages displayed before or after
an expected content page, often to display
advertisements or confirm the user's age (prior
to showing age-restricted material)

Saverin Jr leaves a country before it gets too dangerous => Boo
