> I missed the memo on when meritocracy became a bad word

When people realized that the guy who starts with a billion dollar dad and a buy in to harvard is being graded on the same scale as the guy who started in a trailer park with a single mom and community college.

You can't have a meritocracy without the same starting point, and you can't have that in real life.
