It should at the very least be considered a form of racism

It's wrong to classify people in such a manner.  It is bad enough here that we have income classes of wealthy, middle class and poor.  If you happen to fall into the poor class you are discriminated against... these kinds of things hurt people everywhere.

I think its so important when we elect our officials that we bring up this important topic and advocate for the eradication of this unAmerican way of action.

I must admit that I haven't thought about "caste" in a long time.  I guess I would if I lived in India.  I'm afraid that this old world will never be without prejudice of some kind somewhere, but we must continue to work on that problem wherever we are.

Its a sad form of racism I think..even after all these years, I think the caste system still prevails.
