So.... we're just now rediscovering Social Darwinism in 2011?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Darwinism This is what The Enlightenment was about: the idea that people were better than animals. The whole reason we have regulation at all is that without it, we end up with feudalism. This is common knowledge. When people rehash this stuff as if it's somehow novel, it demeans the entire movement.
