Have you seen the movie Idiocracy? IMO it's a way more likely dystopia than 1984 or Brave New World, and it's explained here[1]. I would argue that that future is twisted and wrong, and is partly enabled by (mis)use of medicine.
Now I do think that nature's approach, while extremely robust, does result in a lot of collateral damage--e.g. the fit don't always survive (most of us know people who died young due to no genetic conditions and due to no fault of their own), and the unfit don't have to die, they just need to not reproduce.
