Capitalist modes of production closely parallel Greek tyranny, as they rely on predation of surrounding resources, which tends to hinder the production of those resources, like how republican Rome's predatory provincial rule drained the provinces of their production capabilities.

Capitalism drains outside resources & redistributes them, producing positive feedback & raising living standards & thus the demand on resources. The same mode of production didn't last 200 years in Greek tyranny & Rome's republican provincial system, for very obvious reasons.
