What are the motifs in Metal Men: Marc Rich and the 10-billion-dollar Scam by A. Craig Copetas?

Justice is a recurring idea in the story. Marc Rich was a U.S. citizen, born in Belgium but naturalized and made a U.S. citizen. In his business dealings, Rich played fast and loose with laws across the globe. He cheated many companies out of millions of dollars and he cheated the U.S. taxpayer by not paying income tax on his vast fortune. He used bribes and intimidation to get his way, making deals that bolstered his bank account and his image. Rich cavalierly disrespected the countries of the world in order to make deals that would gain him power and money.
