Not true at all. We as a society favor life in prison for certain crimes , but not life in prison for all or any crime. What you said is not true
Oh don’t be disingenuous here.

Researchers from the University of East Anglia find that natural selection is favoring poorer people with little education. The study “shows how natural selection effects are stronger in groups with lower income and less education, among younger parents, people not living with a partner, and people with more lifetime sexual partners.”

Harvey Danger had this figured out 10 years before Idiocracy.

You said we as a society are all or nothing. That proves that is not correct

Birth rates decrease with more income and access to birth control, it’s not based on intelligence

Actually many poor countries in Africa have a high birth rate largely due to the Catholic Church telling them that condoms are sin.

It could be better, yes. But it isn't a Soviet form, and won't ever reach that.
I completely disagree here.

We are slowly trudging in that direction, and will get there at some point.

I believe it is an inevitability, especially as we transition to some global government, which will happen.

It is such an easy system of control, and far easier than capitalism.

No sane person could believe this.

Smart people don't take the same number of shitty risks that dumb people do.

But you said being risk averse is a bad thing?

The Soviet form is a form of Serfdom. And Russia is famous for being the last practitioner of Serfdom. They only gave it up halfway through the 19th century. And not ever fully until the 1990's when they became capitalistic.

Overly risk averse, yes.

There is a difference between being smart and scared. Maybe you should read all of the stuff I said in that thread, because it will ruin your little fantasy.

I'd risk a lot to save a child, voluntarily

Funny enough, a feudalistic society is what some here a advocating for. “Get what you can, every man for himself”…. How did that work out. Like I said even Neanderthals had some form of caring for the needy

Exactly where we are headed.

Technocracy is the goal, which is state/corporate socialism.

Would you? What about a 2 year old that needs government assistance to survive and have adequate healthcare?

We need to end welfare for single mothers.


We should also quit allowing medicaid patients to have a kid for what is essentially free. You can do this by garnishing their tax returns or wages until it is paid back.

So how do you suggest we decrease the number of people on welfare only because they're stupid an/or lazy? It's not a sustainable plan to continue to write checks per child, thus incentiving more dependent children? What is the solution, Kemo Sabe?
