It's a feeling of "not being heard" and being seen as only a number and made to think that your health is only $$$$$ in someone's pocket.

Now Bollywood knows how to portray greed as violent. But it's usually a violent slumlord who runs a brothel. He counts his money as he forces tenants to whore themselves and then takes the money. If they don't hand it over, he throws them in the streets. Of course the landlord is a criminal himself, always involved in local politics and taking kickbacks from everyone. The movies create dread just watching them. Sometimes a woman is the villain. Former prostitute turned madam, turned landlord, turned politician.
Maybe Dickens also portrayed this.
