killing with kindness

it could be speculated that: 

social welfare programs are some of the biggest eugenics programs that humans have undertaken, 

because it allowed countries to lure out those humans that were unable or unwilling to work 

easy access to drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, pain medicine and other unhealthy substances were probably considered part of the cure 

other conclusions could be made,  

but patterns of systems are noticeable 

interesting part is that it was probably not planned, 

just humans following their evolutionary programming to use civilization as a eugenics tool to evolve the species
