Vinny, do you have an understanding of what Darwinism and evolution really are? Do you understand the difference between 'survival of the fittest' and 'survival of the strongest?'
If we attempt to alter social evolution, all we really do is alter the environment. In the end, the social behaviors that survive won't always be he best behaviors for society but the behaviors that are best for that specific situation. What you're suggesting is some kind of Tea Party view of the world, but what you would get is a world filled with selfish pricks only looking out for themselves and screw everyone else. I would much rather live in a compassionate world with a little higher taxes than to be transported to a bad gangster movie.
