Are there any non-amenable group $G$ with the property:
There exists $C<1$ such that for every finite set $S\subset G$ there exists a set $F\subseteq S$ such that $|F|\geq C |S|$ and $F$ generates an amenable group.
UPDATE: Here is some motivation for the question: http://mathoverflow.net/questions/55075/amenability-of-groups-iii
