A short sketch from That Mitchell and Webb Look in which the characters cheerfully propose a drastically callous solution to poverty. It is dark satirical comedy about cold policy logic.
Commenters drop it as a joke when a discussion drifts toward callous, dehumanizing policy or corporate logic.

On your tongue: "what exactly can we do?" On theirs: "Just for the sake of making the numbers work, have you tried putting in 'kill all the poor'?". ▶ this video
> There is an obvious moral question here, but that isn’t necessarily what I’m interested in. And thus we arrive at the absolute shit state the world is in. We keep putting morality aside for something “more interesting” then forget to consider it back in when making the final point. “Have you tried: “kill all the poor?”” ▶ this video
Finally, a situation besides “are we the baddies” where a Mitchell and Webb sketch is highly relevant. ▶ this video
“Look, I’m not saying do it… I’m just saying run it through the computer to see if it would work.” “ Whether it would work is not the issue.” “So you think it might work?” ▶ this video
