While it seems like a great idea in theory, in practice eugenics probably won't work. While weeding out all of the idiots is something that I would love, people are just going to call it evil and say that it's violating their rights. The people not chosen for their genes would feel insulted and cheated. In addition, what is desirable or not in a person is extremely subjective and varies from person to person. This, in short, is a recipe for disaster. I love the idea, but it won't work.
For people who think eugenics and genetic manipulation are evil, look at your beloved canine companion or kitty cat. Unless you own a wolf or a lynx or something, they've undergone something akin to eugenics. How did your tiny little teacup poodle get so small and cute? Simple. People chose the smallest ones and bred them, because smallness was a desirable trait. My point it that while it's not something the human race would like to have happen to them, eugenics isn't inherently evil.
