I feel that nowadays the breaking point will be a lot sooner. Based on the amount of resources that the average citizen can acquire, mansions would be able to get looted a lot quicker. If not looted then razed.
If you mean in a popular revolution way, I feel the need to point out that that's not what happened in Rome, and very arguably not in France either. The collapse always comes from elites fighting elites - it just gives everyone else a chance to pick off their metaphorical bones.
If we're not on different rules I'm hella doomer about the whole thing, honestly.
