By survival of the fittest, I was referring to societies weeding out the financial dregs...hence the mention of thinning the herd. The biggest predator humans have is in fact society, and we should indeed be prey in far more instances, unfortunately for overall finance many governments feel the need to "protect" us. So for every 1 going hungry for legitimate reasons, you have 10 well fed citizens claiming the same benefits due to lack of appropriate checks. Same with housing, welfare, unemployment etc etc....
These issues, and how to eliminate them, have become a driving force behind Chinese and Russian policies since the early 90s. May sound evil to Rocky IV 1985 sensibilities, as there is certainly a better middle ground between "kill them" and "support them completely on the backs of the wealthy".
