2006 was the first year the top 200 richest people in the world were all billionaires and many billionaires didn't even make the list.
No one would begrudge someone for becoming rich by working really hard for it but how many people think the top execs who earn 50 million dollar bonuses really earned it?
The debate on whether or not the USA should support a universal health care system is quite strange. Doesn't the US Constitution demand equality for all? And yet people who can't afford health insurance in the USA are treated like losers. Perhaps they were just unlucky, after all that is what insurance is designed for...to protect the unlucky ones.
Do the words 'safety net' mean anything to people who oppose universal health care?

You have an excellent point. Our current health care system does NOT "promote the general welfare", as our Constitution says.
Unfortunately, in many American circles, greed had replaced common concern and common decency. This, of course, leads to the condition of "survival of the fittest".
The Republicans in particular have encouraged this "survival of the fittest" mode--ironic, when you think that Christians are encouraged to support the Republicans, and "survival of the fittest" is as un-Christian a philosophy as you can get!

it sounds like we could start up differentiating between emotional love, and sexual allure. whilst emotional love is needed for greater proper well being, and wellbeing. actual love, is needed for production of offspring. neither one has any effect on survival of the fittest. . survival of the fittest, is predicated on the good preying on the susceptible. and in the animal kingdom, the place they try for the ideal to reproduce. and in basic terms the good are allowed to reproduce, to that end passing on the greater proper genes. possibly because of the fact of this that woman canines, have attained this form of undesirable call.

America has devolved into perhaps the worst society in the history of the world. It glorifies greed, covetous behavior, abject immorality, violence and of course the Darwinian system that treats the poor like a commodity.
The sad news is the rest of the world thinks this is a good system and are converting to it as fast as they can.

not just survival of the fittest, it's the percecution of those who are not part of the rich elite.
P.S. Bush recently tried to force an "amnesty for illegal immigrants" bill through, but it was defeated, and now even his most fantical supporters are calling him a liberal.

No, it doesnt. it encourages survival of the richest, if you ask me. and/or the most attractive.
