You got me all wrong. I personally would like to see a new Gilded Age. I'm an admirer of the great industrialists of the late 19th Century. I think they were on the right track, and what they did created more wealth for everybody than any government can dream of. I used the term Robber Barons as a term of familiarity. You are right, I shouldn't of, but I felt more people would know who I was talking about with that term than late 19th century industrialists.

My point is that Darwinism was used to promote some good here in the United States. And it was also used for evil purposes in Europe. Darwinism itself as a construct in social policy, in how individuals react to each other, is neutral in regards to good and evil. Americans used it to great a great thriving economy, while Europeans used it to create murder. I guess the difference is in the mindset of Americans compared to Europeans.

Darwinism is used here to promote abortion (eliminating the weeds of society) and Marxism so your theory falls short on all accounts. I would be interested in one thing it has been used to promote which is not enlarging government or eliminating God from America.
