A Darwinian dystopia. It seems that to them, it actually strengthens society to winnow out the weak, old, vulnerable. Because that pruning will improve the stock. Those individuals that withstood the thinning out, will be the more gifted and resilient. More equipped to contribute more to society, increasing prosperity and living standards for us all. But as for those born into rough, non-privileged circumstances, only a very few will possess the inborn ability to rise out of their legacy of poverty. The great majority will be more or less lifelong burdens on society. So probably much better to do things that thin their childhood ranks, as preemptive remedy. Retire programs such as anti childhood poverty, universal pre-K, tax credits for families with kids, cut SNAP, WIC programs, defund public education to the bone. The list is very long.
I think they are connoisseurs of the Darwinian flavor to all of this. But more to the point, what they appreciate most is less of their money being taxed away for the purpose of helping other people.
