Up until a couple years ago I thought we were moving away from racism and classism and more towards a caste system.
Turns out we actually are, races just have their own sub-castes.
But ultimately there are really very few examples of individuals moving past the second or third tier on their own. Those that do are often flaunted as examples of the American Dream or whatever. Basically, hunger games.
