Reservations? Lets talk about economical upliftment!

Been a long time sicne I've got around to blogging but when you read someting like:
then it really makes you wanna get up and say something.
There's probably been enough said on how reservation is bad blah blah and what all these articles seem to portray is that they want reservation for the low income backward castes.
My question (as I have posted a comment on that above blog) is how does this help the backward upper castes? When you look at places in India today, its starting to become a fact that OBC = Other Brahmin Communities! Upper caste people facing poor socio-economic situations and on top of that now have to put up with more reservation, less chances of getting to do something to uplift themselves. Some justice eh?
What we need is not social discriminaiton, but some sort of system to help those that don't have enough money to live properly to gain some sort of livelihood. Lets try and look at providing a truely equal sense of upliftment for people.
