I have been making this point on this forum for years BTW. Also drop the inference to racism, loser its a 2 bit insulting trick to discourage people from disagreeing with you.

I think your right ghostiger, but this thing is too often used out of racist believes. (I'm not saying you do, but I want to state that I find it without sense to talk about it in the way you do)
If you would just look biologically a lot of the most succesful people in the world (in terms of power and wealth), are very weak, and would "not survive with the fittest".
All those fat managers and politicians etc. etc.
If there really would be a new kind of evolution which would favour the succesful, we would maybe go towards a society of people that are just very good in reaching succes in the modern kapitalist societies.
So the statement of "because of empathy we save people with "genetic problems" is not correct. Most of the succesful people (just like everybody else) are also genetically "challenged" so we keep people with "bad genes" alive, because we have bad genes ourselves and because we can. And on the other site of the world, also many people with "perfect genes" die every day, just because there are wars and there is no food.
