But conversely
As long as they get the balance right regarding career and reproduction, the better education and more comfortable lifestyle means they will be able to be more selective about their partners, and their resulting offspring can be bought up with a better chance in life. The Morlocks, on the other hand, simply have to breed with anything that has a fanny and produce as many offspring as possible in the hope that one of their foul progeny will succeed in spite of its disadvantaged background.

Yep. You go to all this trouble working through a good education to fight for a good job
when you could just be happily rutting away on the floor of a council flat with some scrawny, acne-riddled young oik who didn't even have the manners to remove his Burberry hat, whilst you turn your head every so often to tell your previous offspring to shut the fuck up and keep watching the telly, or just to stub the end of another cigarette and fumble another one out of the box nearby.
