    Oh sure.

    Every rung of capitalist is under constant threat of being casually tossed aside by a bigger capitalist, until you get to the top of the hierarchy and they need to grow their empire as fast as possible lest someone else do it faster and put them back into that situation. It's a pretty shitty system even for them. (Though of course, they're under threat of becoming smaller capitalists or being reduced to working class, not the threat of death from exposure like the working class is.)
