Well... I think meritocracy is perfect, it mirrors evolution in rewarding superior contributors(ie, on their merit). However, being in the "elite" mentioned in the article does not imply you have merit. People in that "elite" might have merit, but they might also just have rich/powerful parents, connections, and friends. If that's the case, then they aren't "elite" based on their merit, but based on who they know.
