.......just a quick poll on here, as a percentage, how much of humanity do you think would kill themselves due to their own stupidity if we removed ALL safety rails?
My personal guess, 60% as if I knew I had this heart condition, I'd only drink water when I'm out.
It's been 3 generations, maybe 4-5, since natural selection has been at work in the West. "Don't dumb here, this is a no dumb zone" is an edgy workplace sticker now, but in 1950 it would have been perfectly acceptable to post on a business' front door.
I have 'a global emp caused by a solar flare' as a reason for losing a billion people as you know without anything telling people not to mind the gap they're gonna die..
stated otherwise, could Americans avoid death in a real 3rd world country? No. Obviously not. Fat, proudly stupid, incapable of even finding shelter, obtaining water and food. Let alone protect themselves from robbery and murder.

I’m convinced the downfall of society is due to us “beating” natural selection.

That would be natural selection going for a late-game win strategy
Glad I'm not the only one who's arrived at that conclusion.
I'm thinking more like 30%.
What can I say, I'm an optimist.

Almost everyone. The burden of safety knowledge now would be insane. As usual, skepticism and caution rule the day.
