In Act III, scene ii, lines 87-99, Antony, Caesar's beloved friend, effectively shows some of Caesar's good deeds by stating: “He was my friend, faithful and right with me ; but Brutus says he was ambitious... He brought many prisoners to Rome, whose ransoms filled the general coffers... When the poor cried, Caesar cried... You all saw it on the Lupercal I three times offered him a royal crown, which he refused three times. Was this the ambition?" While part of the First Triumvirate, Caesar made some wonderful reforms that helped improve the lives of those living in Rome. He limited the grain welfare program to only those who needed it. With this change, people in real poverty got what they needed, in terms of resources, because everything went to them and not to others who could get it themselves. He made a law that limited the number of slaves that an estate had could have to allow more employment opportunities for the poor; those in poverty were slaves, they could not work and earn money for their family. He also reduced taxes and collections and made governors strictly responsible for the people's money government lost public money. Caesar also helped Rome with his successes in battle. He gave land won in battle to landless soldiers and farmers to help establish more Roman colonies and ended the civil war.
