Does that somehow affect the point I made?


Yes. You implied that the caste system was somehow unique to India. Reality is that every country has its own way of sorting wealth to the most favored.


I did not imply that, you misinterpreted what I said, presumably due to preconceived bias.

No shit!

However, when I discuss the issues with wealth distribution here in America, no one goes, "But India has a caste system!"

Yet apparently pointing out issues with India's wealth distribution, I'm met with deflection, blame games and a horde of people patronizingly assuming without cause that I live under a rock and have no grasp of global economics, politics or history.
