Destroy the Varnashrama Dharm.
Why should only Shudhras work for the other three, aren't there any shudhras with brains and aren't there any Brahmins with no brains and should they still guide the society with no brains. The dharma itself is lame. You, by supporting it are racist and castist.
Any body who can put their body and mind to work should be allowed to do anything they want and not based on caste. And that's what the root of problem in India and you are just supporting that. I belong to a forward caste but just hate the bloody Caste System in India. Unfortunately, Indians living in USA too are very much into it. "You can take a person out of the country and NOT the country out of the person"

To eat junk food, drink, smoke and have sex like dogs, you dont have to be from usa or europe, africa, asia you can be doing all that from India as well.
To be a good human, you can be living anywhere, doing anything and come from anywhere.
Just because you are born in India and beleive in shastra's don't make you a noble and holy human being.

you have a poor knowledge of Indian vedic literature and yet you call yourself Indian! The caste system was criticized by muslims when they invaded Indian because they wanted to spreak Islam. Then the brits came and they wanted to spread christianity and they deprecated the hindu caste system.
Originally the caste system was not by birth but by qualities. If one who is born in a Shudra family acts like a brahmana then he can become a Brahmana. Similarly if one born in brahmin family acts like a Shudra then he is no longer called a Brahmana.
Now for some examples to prove the above point.
Perianammbir, the guru of Ramanucharya was born in a Shudra family. Similarly Valmiki, who was a highway robber (not even a shudra by birth), went on to write the Ramayana which is even today accepted by all the brahmins and the vedic scholars. Suta Goswami was born of a lower parentage and he recited the Srimad Bhagavatam which is even today sung by many learned people. In this way there are countless examples.
Just because the muslims and then the brits followed by our dumb and corrupt politicians are carrying out a vicious propoganda, it does not mean we should stop thinking intelligently.
"Inadvertently Human" has rightly pointed out that India was one of the richest countried in the world about a 1000 years back. It was flourishing both spiritually as well as materially. Imagine the whole Somnath temple was made of solid gold! What has the west to offer today other
