President Obama accused the Republicans of being social Darwinists. What does that mean to you?

1. Here is what I think

Darwin espoused a theory known as " Survival of the fittest". President Obama is merely presenting the case that Republicans believe the natural order is to allow the fittest (wealthy) to prosper, and control our government. The middle class and poor (weak) are not as "fit" in this context. Obama believes that tax dollars should be allocated to social programs to enhance education and health care for the socially and economically disadvantaged, to make them more "fit". The GOP wants to deprive them of this to perpetuate, what they see as, their "superiority".
