This guy is basically saying a lot of people will have to die (starvation) for the good of the ecconomy. When have I heard that before? Seems like there was a plague recently, and they said this very thing then too. What was it again?

To say people need to be replaced is cultural stupidity. It is an opportunity to lead. When that opportunity is not taken, when it is not invested in growth, when it is extracted, failure follows as real leaders emerge. Meritocratic order is the most important factor totally absent from the American zeitgeist and leadership.

I am commenting on the propaganda value being shit.
