I'd agree with you IFF he was asking for compensation after being wronged. As you pointed out, he exploited, in one aspect or another, reaping the benefits at the expense of others. Conversely it happened to him. It is fair to point out the observation post introspection of being on both sides of the equation, exploiter and exploited. It is not be fair to ask for compensation for exploitation and not willing to give compensation for exploiting.
