[Charles32250]

Yes, we do have a class system, and yes it is supposedly based on personal merit. But I challenge you meritocratic folks to look me in the eye and tell me the John Rockefeller III deserved billions of dollars simply for surviving to adulthood. Those billions were built through brilliant intelligence and some harsh economic opression - but neither the merit nor the injustice was John's. Just as in all human societies, America has a heriditary class system. What makes it worth keeping, though, is that a lie cannot stay this popular if it is completely fabricated. While clawing your way into the aristocracy is never easy and never happens very often, it happens more often here than anywhere else. And millions of immigrants have proven that, slim though that chance is, a lot of us are willing to go for it.
