The shantytown home of a child star in the Oscar-winning film "Slumdog Millionaire" was torn down on Thursday as Mumbai authorities cleared an illegal slum. A team of workers moved into the sprawling Gareeb Nagar shantytown in the Bandra East area of central Mumbai, which had sprung up on government land.

  • That is absolutely ridiculous. He went to the Oscars and he lives in a slum. WTF? Look at all the multi-millionaires and billionaires taht atend that function. They don't want much, if just half of the rich elites in attendance gave just a little money it would've helped those people more than we will ever know. Hell, I'm just working-class guy and I would've gave 'em $100. Hollywood people just "act" like they are generous sometimes. Not all, but alot.

  • WTF!!!

  • @PKvide0s thats tight

  • "his pet chicken has just died" LMFAOOO!O!!!

  • This is so sad, the government should let them stay on the land, and keep their houses, not demolish their livlihoods, I guess governments are looking for money at peoples expenses, I don't know, there's an example of it here in the US with FANNY MAE and FREDDIE MAC,

  • What an idiotic comment. Some people are beyond stupid

  • Quite frankly, I find your views on poverty, ignorant, biased, and nothing short of retarded in your ability to empathize with people. You should not only be ashamed of such hitler-like statements, but seek to educate yourself on the subject. Your suggestion shows, that you haven't done much to see, if there are ways to end poverty either! How about you advocate for better quality of life, instead of trying to end it. I don't see anyone calling for your death, for sharing assinine P.O.V.

  • Don't be simple. There are governments in every nation. And most of the governments, and leaders of the third world are prone to corruption. In which case, povery is the most severe. If you can't comprehend, how companies outsource to these nations where poverty is highest, , and not paying workers wages they can live on, then school failed you. It's basic economics. To answer your question, I'm not 100% sure how to end poverty. But, the answer isn't in executing people of lower economic status

  • There is no "international government" in this world, and i really did not get your point about the companies and the employees.

    I had asked you about your opinion about the best way to remove poverty. Don't drift away from my question.

  • How about all the money, international government allots to everything OTHER then poverty? How about, companie paying employees wages, that can actually afford them a decent lifestyle? It seems that companies EVERYWHERE are getting over ,by hiring the most desperate workers, and paying them change for work. How about people like you, who  think poverty is a disease, lose a job, or your means of income. You'd soon see how easy it is, for most people to be one check away, from being homeless.

  • well then what other alternative solution for poverty do you suggest?....
