The group concept seems creative and somewhat reasonable at first glance. But the problems are extracted when we dig deeper into the flat level concept. The problem here is what types of children from what economic, social, and politcal backgrounds will define the groups you wish to create. Who are we to label individuals as part of a determined group. This is simply a version of the unequal opportunity caste system or a system of rigid social stratification. In the last half decade we have seen obstacles overcome by individuals and groups domestically and internationally in many areas that were "pre-determined" for one or a few groups of people. This system will place us in a time where individuals at a young age or no age at all will be trained and brainwashed to fulfill a planned future in their lives. Imagine the loss and strangulation of hidden talents. Imagine if Michael Jordan or Bill Gates were constrained in their ambitions. Where would the world be today? The group concept would severly trough our growth in becoming the most diversified, unified, and proven society.
