All civilizations inherently contain the seeds of their own destruction. Only a eugenic policy to safeguard against deterioration can avert this decline. It is vital to recognise the negative aspects of civilization so that we may overcome these problems and develop the first ever civilization which is self perpetuating. The solution is simple. It is a eugenic programme of improving racial quality.
Civilization saves the misfits.
It is a 'humanising' process which sustains and subsidises the weak, the helpless, the morons, the idiots and the inadequates. These elements of the population are a burden carried by the more capable elements. Consequently, the gene pool is flooded with the undesirable elements who breed more prolifically. In civilization there is far less impetus to use one's own intelligence to survive. In primitive society, those who best used their wits, who had energy, who coped best, would survive and live to have children.
