There are some interesting variations of the game, using a standard Monopoly set. One I've seen allowed things like Lynch Mobs - if enough of the players agree, they can send someone to prison, remove their assets, or even eject them from the game. You could also institute a rule like "90% tax on cash holdings" or "those with assets under $200 receive an extra $1000 when they pass Go". It sort of combined Werewolf with Monopoly, because it required more skill at the human level to persuade your fellow players to vote with you.

Sounds like "Monopoly: Regulatory Capture Edition".
"...Lynch Mobs - if enough of the players agree, they can send someone to prison, remove their assets, or even eject them from the game"

AKA democracy ;-)
