In John Steinbeck's book, the Pearl, the rich have power over the poor when they are able to manipulate the buying price of the pearl. They have tons of money, and yet they still try to take advantage of the poor by giving them way less than they deserve. The poor folk can't change that at all, and so they are forced to either sell the pearl for that price or not at all. This catch 22, so to speak, is when the rich have power over the poor.
