Interesting to view the term limit, as a way to protect the wealthy from the public

To be fair, term limits also protect the public from whatever tyrants they might accidentally vote into power. But this too has the effect of stabilizing the status quo, which benefits those who like the status quo the most (the wealthy.)

Yes, and "everyone" is aware about that, so that is not interesting :-)
