Social darwinism isn't that, although it's big with people of Netherlandian extraction, Calvinists.

Social darwinism is the belief that everything is preordained, and if you are rich, god favors you, if poor, god hates you. It would be irresponsible to help the poor because god wants them to suffer, and so forth. Like the Prosperity Doctrine.
