Why are leaders usually not threatened by violence?

Why are leaders usually not threatened by violence?
When I say leaders I mean CEOs of billionaire companies, presidents, prime ministers, etc.

Many of these "leaders" (rather criminals), do extremely evil things. Take for example pharmaceutics: many have sickened or killed people just to get more profit. Even though there are lawsuits and discontent, the CEOs of these companies know they are safe. Nobody, even the victims, will try to physically harm them for revenge. Same with politicians who steal and do harm to society. 

You may say that many of these people have bodyguards, protection, etc. Which is true. But that is not always the case. There are many opportunities to harm these people if planned enough. You would think some people would have the courage and intelligence to plan attacks on them.

It seems to me that the answer is that society feels distanced from their leaders and from corporations. When acts of corruption or evils happen people simply tend to accept it.

What do you think?
