Seems that Feudal-Monopoly Economy is based on the Darwinian Theory,

9s-mumbai-shanty-home-torn-down-reuters> Azharuddin Ismail, who acted as the
young 'Salim' in the Oscar-winning movie MUMBAI (Reuters) - City authorities
in Mumbai demolished the shanty home of a "Slumdog Millionaire" child star
on Thursday, forcing his family into the streets months after the
Oscar-winning film shot him to global fame. 

Azharuddin Ismail, 9, played the character of Salim as a child in the film,
a rags-to-riches romance about a poor Indian boy competing for love and
money on a television game show. 

Ismail's tarpaulin-covered home in a teeming slum was one of several
shanties, illegally built along a drain, that were demolished by local
authorities in Mumbai, India's financial capital and entertainment hub. 

"When they came I was sleeping, they shook me awake and one policeman even
threatened me," Ismail, surrounded by half-broken suitcases filled with
clothes and utensils, told Reuters. 

"What can I do if they have demolished my house? I will sleep out in the
open." 

A poster of "Slumdog Millionaire," signed by director Danny Boyle, fluttered
from the only wall of Ismail's shanty still standing. Open sewers run nearby
and it had no running water. 

Authorities said the shanties had been demolished earlier but had sprung up
again on the same spot. 

"The shanties are all touching a drain that has to be cleaned before the
advent of the monsoons," said U.D. Mistry, the local official in charge of
the demolition drive. 

Earlier this year, there was an outcry after pictures emerged of "Slumdog
Millionaire's" child stars living in squalor despite the movie's box-office
success and eight Academy Awards. 

The film also sparked controversy for its name, deemed by some to be
offensive to slum dwellers, and its treatment of the cast. Its depiction of
the lives of poor Indians was dubbed "poverty porn" by sections of the
media. 

In February, the housing authority of Maharashtra state, of which Mumbai is
the capital, said they would give Ismail and fellow child star Rubina Ali
new houses. But Ismail's mother, Shameem, said the family is now at the
mercy of the rains. 

"We also heard that the government had promised us houses, but what
happened? We are still homeless," she said. "My son has brought glory to the
country, shouldn't he get some credit?"
