Do you think we have some form of a caste system like India here in the U.S.?

It’s just seems like at times its hard for some to grow and succeed out of bad living situations that one may be born into. Even that aside. Minority’s are judged as well. It’s seems some can be overly judgemental and quick to label. I had a hard time getting jobs in the mainland because I’m from Hawaii and they were worried if I spoke english (everybody speaks english in Hawaii!!). It boggled my mind. Then I thought of what hispanics and asians probley go through (friends of mine being treated like dirt, I was so sad). What about people from ghettos and what not, as well? People are quick to call someone “white trash” too. We are all individuals yet we are all labeled in groups. It all seems so hateful. Almost like a caste system.
