You've got a point with that, but the fact is that even when they do escape those seemingly inescapable situations, there's been some sort of damage done that is revealed later on in the series' run. That's what makes it so interesting. Plus, ultimately, Vic's efforts to control everything and everyone close to him blow up in his face and while he "gets away" with everything he's done, the life he ends up with would hardly seem worth everything he put himself and his loved ones through.
