The fact is it is an idiotic system no matter what the intention was. Here in the west there is no cast system and it works fine. People arent discriminated against, and if they are there are policies in place such as discriminatory systems, or human rights commisions. The fact is this kind of system will soon be abused, because people in the so called highest cast will discriminate against the people in the lower caste. It is unfortunate because it is deep rooted in the Indian culture, and here in the west we are lucky we dont have it, and there is no such discrimination.
