Just one example is public beach access. All over the us, many wealthy people buy up large beachfront mansion properties (but not the public beach nearby). But somehow there ends up being lawsuits because construction (and sometimes private guards) will close off what was previously publically accessible beach areas. It's a symbolic version of what is happening for the wealthy in many other areas - in particular the political process where dollars speak in decisions stronger than voters.
