I have to say, in all seriousness, I agree with Rayne's sentiment, despite the comedic bent.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. ~~The Litany Against Fear, DUNE

It, however, is not a new idea.

As a disabled person, I take offense to Rayne's attitude.

But on the other hand, it is Rayne, and in some instances he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Actually what Rayne is referring to is Social Darwinism, or "Survival of the fittest," both of which are commonly attributed to Charles Darwin, yet such assumptions are wrong. It was in fact Herbert Spencer and other like-minded economic philosophers of the time who coined the term "Survival of the fittest" after reading Darwin's work. Spencer and other pure Social Darwinists believe as Rayne does--that we should not help the elderly or the sick, and that they should be left to fend for their selves. Spencer mostly twisted Darwin's work to try and fit his rhetoric because Darwin also included theories on race, which was obviously a hot topic during Spencer's time as a bigot and a racist (the 1850s and later on). So these days Darwin, a scientist who had the most noble intentions of mapping animal racial theory, is now thrown into the mix with other idiots like Spencer simply because they pulled his work in and claimed it as their own.

And that's why I always explain it as "Survival of the Fit Enough" ^^

Sorry for confirming Godwin's law, but the Nazis frequently used social darwinism to justify the violence. (If a race doesn't resist extermination they deserve it).

Rayne does make a point. At least in the US, 80% of medical cost come from 20% of the people. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, although in this case that might not be morally acceptable.

Oh no, politics! *RUNS AWAY QUICKLY* :blink:

On the other hand, if there's Sunny D involved, might as well stay. Even though I had some yesterday.... and possibly the day before..... :D

Believe it or not "Natural Selection" or rather "Social Darwinism" is actually an existing political ideology in most western countries. Whilst most people do not take it do the extremes of the total removal of healthcare so that only the strong survive as part of some eugenicist ideal a strong argument can be made that things like helmet and seatbelt laws are actually detrimental to the human species, eg. someone dumb enough not to want to save their own brain from total annihilation deserve what they get.'
