That's really not right. Weak according to nature is not weak according to man. I have asthma, so should I die because my lungs are weak? 1000 years ago I would die. Now I am on meds when I need them, but remain a fully functioning member of society.
No, it won't be the downfall of society, it will be its rise. For only the species which commits itself to self preservation in such a way so as to make the weakest into equals is the best survival.
to hell with genetic elitism.

Humans today are selfish, greedy, fear mongering control freaks. Women are being told mixed messages. And forced sometimes into lifestyles they cannot control. Either through addiction or male dominances. This behavior is due solely to money. Money is a drug. Money is a tool of control. Where there is none. I say we lose money, all allow ourselves a place in this world working together, farming, gathering, storing and provisioning. "what about the mining and production no one will work those for free."?
Robots..? we already have them for vehicle production. That way we humans can relax and farm and spend time with family. That is after all an originating intent. Living naked in the garden, unashamed or scared. Provided for by paradise, all it takes to achieve paradise is overcoming losers who want to use money to corrupt your minds and hearts with violence, usury for pleasure and confusion. In this world. Nothing is wrong. Whats wrong are the way people treat each other in doing so. Im not saying killing is right, or stealing or any type of harrassment. But normal human things. Expirementations. We all are prone to this. Why deny it in fear of a group of inexperienced know it alls who use unjust force justified by moneys grip. Money whether you want to admit it or not will be the worlds downfall. Let go now of microchips and money and live not socialisticly, but practicly. If i have a government, i will call it
Practocracy.

But that is their choice, and it's not even related to genetics or viability.
it is not your right, nor the government's right, to force any kind of ethical, cultural, life style, etc upon the individual. This is an absolute truth. You dissatisfaction with other's life styles is not justification to alter it. Why can't a pastor force a homosexual to be strait? Because it is not his right. You are in that pastors position. You are entitled to your opinion, but you have no right to force your beliefs of what a human should be or do onto others under any circumstances unless they are a criminal in need of being readjusted so they don't murder/rape/pillage/etc.
End of story.
Also, as to your edit, wouldn't these people be in the position to survive? After all, the rich conservatives would buy people to save them, the rich liberals would buy government to save them. Either way you look at it, you are wrong. They will not die.
