Inherently, no. But accumulation of personal property can be a result of profit; profit is simply the difference between expenses and revenue, whether expressed in monetary terms or in material goods.
So long as people are allowed to dispose of the fruits of their own labor as they desire, profit remains a possibility. Which means any society must either how to deal with profit, or how to stop people from disposing of the fruits of their labor as they desire.

And who is going to protect the corrupt arseholes from us? At the moment it’s the entire system we live under, that they control.

Do you really think your life cannot be worse than it is now?
If so, I suggest a severe lack of both imagination and understanding of ongoing foreign affairs.
