Some kind of caste system will always exist, whether its meritocracy or based on your family ties or on your birth chart or on personal wealth or on *something*. Usually, that *something* is several things combined, no matter what social conventions claim. The caste system in India pre-British was somewhat different than it was during the British rule or post-British. WHich was better? How do you define better?
