Darwin only for animals
Free markets are full of flaws because they have been based on those human qualities which are the dark ones. Think of a philosophy based on cruelty, dishonesty and hate. Free marketers may not agree but they are the basis of the philosophy. I have seen that free market supporters are also strong Darwin supporters. I like Darwin also. But we need to remember that Darwin after all wrote about animals. And we are humans. Darwin could never spot the missing link. Even today no one can show how humans exactly evolved from monkeys. So until then we can not let Darwin's ideas of survival of fittest work in our world.
Darwin would say extinction of animals and killing of species is ok as long as it is natural. Many free marketers say that about victims of tsunami or earthquake or Katrina. Survival of the fittest? In animal kingdom, cruelty and hate do not exist because they are animals. So a lion eating up cows is not cruel. But if a strong man targets a weak man, it will be cruelty and hatred. And we as humans can not let it be so.
Free markets and reforms call for almost jungle raj. No regulation, no laws, no government, just anarchy and strongest one winning. Is that not cruel in human world? we need to stop the cruelty and hate. A humanly behaviour is possible only by humane ideals. And for that we need governments run by people who understand and are compassionate.
In India sadly governments have not been compassionate. we should ensure they are. But Darwin fans reformers would want government to go away so lions can feast on cows and goats and rabbits. That can not happen.
We recently saw a win for those who like the human face. The French government, shamed by protests, called back Clemenceau. Our brothers at Alang are safe from asbestosis. As it is I find ship breaking very undignified activity. I hope all these people can return to agriculture and the greedy exploiting ship breaking industry shuts down.

You're right, "these people" should return to agriculture. We clearly know what's best for our brothers, because they're incapable of thinking for themselves.
Please, please read a good book on Darwinism. Also, read a book on Communism. As I recall, it was the pinkos who want the government to eventually go away.
