There was a Roman who was rich because of private fire fighters, Crassus. Being the richest person in Rome's history, it will no doubt come as a shock when history shows he was instrumental in turning the Republic into the Roman Empire.
The cycle continues. Democracy will die because the rich hoard the power and money speaks loudest when it is accepted speech.
