Is it a real meritocracy like they say? Then prove it, take away all forms of generational wealth. You can only make it on your own merits. This would be fair capitalism. This will never happen because capitalism is a facade, a lie if you will. It is a system designed to keep most of us down through the use of generational wealth. Sure there are exceptions and we celebrate them like sycophants, but they are not the rule.
The only thing crazy is the fact that you support such a system through your inaction or inability to educate yourself on the subject matter.
Says they guy who hasn't studied any history. To say meritocracy doesn't exist is asinine. Families rise and fall, it's this self indulgence of otherizing people that continues the cycle of nepotism.
Keep looking at others and not yourself.
