There is a conflict of interests:
-- as a society we should strive for what Warren buffet calls "lottery of birth" [1]. Egalitarian society will better maximize utility of it's gifted population.
-- as individuals we try to game the system in order to give our children & filmy, friends a lag up. So we want meritocracy and egalitarianism from everyone while practicing nepotism for our close ones.
