"eliminating the weak from the gene pool will result in a healthier population"
Sorry to say, but this is incorrect.
It should be:"eliminating the weak from the gene pool will result in a healthier population
under current circumstances".
The difference is incredibly important to evolution and genetic variation (even the seemingly weak ones) is a big part of the survival mechanism of a species.
It is, as we have found out in biology over the past decennia, the core flaw with the eugenic line of thought.
