Where The Strongest Prevails

Isn't this society all about competition, where only the smartest and richest and strongest prevails?

In school, only the smart ones are being recognised and are given chances to improve and do even better. Only they can get promoted into good streams and schools and have a secure future. They are being rewarded and encouraged, whereas the not so smart ones have no place in anything. They are labelled as weak and will be put aside together with the others, in the classes no teacher will bother about. They remain in the last few streams and can barely get promoted, not to even mention to have a future. They are not being rewarded nor encouraged; they are left on their own.

Where business are concerned, only the rich will have the capital to invest and take risks. They have the chance to gain more profit and expand their business. The poor can only work for the rich, and hardly make ends meet. They have little savings to prepare themselves for the worst, and can't afford to take any risks.

Only the smart and wealthy are being respected and valued, and are given chances to climb even higher. Those lagging behind have no place to stand, and may fall off the ladder any time. No one is there at the down end to pull them back on track. The strong climbs higher, leaving the weak at the bottom.

Isn't this what we were taught and isn't this how life is?
Beasts reigned the floor and the weak are prey to them. Who will even notice their disappearance?
Hail to the creator of mankind!
