[after dark]

No one is as blind as someone who sees something that is not there. There is no correlation between caste systems and prosperity. Caste systems lead to corruption. The lower classes will always bring down the upper crust through vice.This country needs to part ways with its caste heavy education system.Before we had the present public school system , we had community schools. Children who were exceptionally smart finished school quicker and went to college. The bell curve only proved that people with a certain level of intelligence would become wealthy however the bell curve book failed to account for how corruption destroys opportunities.A society which places a heavy emphasis on caste is by nature corrupt and poor.Which is why so many high IQ people are desperately fighting to get into this country. If caste systems were peachy most of those people would stay in the third world. This country is a success because everyone (not just those people with 145+ IQ's) believes they will be successful.

"No one is as blind as someone who sees something that is not there."
Physician, heal thyself [or look in the mirror]. The "Bell Curve" [were you to read and understand it] ought to contain an eye-opener for you - a statistical simulation of otherwise identical American societies, but one with average IQ shifted to 103, and another to 97. The former had much less of any social problems you could care to mention - from crime to illegitimacy to school dropout rates to welfare - i.e. was more prosperous. The latter was correspondingly worse off. Now, do not overinterpret it as the eugenics advocacy.
