(8,994 posts)The GOP - and most importantly the Plutocracy - has realized that you don't cull the undesirables by using cattle cars and gas ovens.
You do it with Capitalism.
The "Ubermensch" will swim and thrive, the "useless eaters" will sink and drown, and if you slowly take away the jobs and reduce the economy down to the captains of industry and the desperately poor, and you take away social safety nets, you can simply watch the desperately poor wither off the vine. They will tear at each other and you won't even need a Panem or a Hunger Games, because you'll have the Hunger Games every day as the proletariat comes out and preys on each other. You keep the Hunger Games going by invoking Calvinism: namely, by claiming that the poor are poor because they are weak.
