Hopefully you're joking, but in case you are not: poverty is not due to lack of resources, but the problems around their distribution.
Killing the poor will just make those previously better off drift into the poor category.
Even if only the richest 1% survives, most of them will lose their positions and become poor, as there will be no workforce, inflation will go through the roof, and a competition will play out all over again, leading some to be the masters and some to be the slaves.
I am joking.
Although I'm not saying these are exactly the same thing, I hope the people who advocate killing the richest 1% are joking too. Somehow I feel like some of them might not be.
