Its not essential ,its just inevitable. Like most of the problems with capitalism, the problem is the inevitability of wealth consolidation that allows the purchase of power that allows further wealth consolidation that allows the purchase of greater power, round and round. Capitalism is an ouroboros, we are just in the stage where its about to finish eating itself.
