This is a very complex question with several reasons and requires
extensive research. I suggest that you'll read the Google Answers
pricing guide at http://answers.google.com/answers/pricing.html

I can't say about UK, but less formal divisions occur in the USA,
which are reiforced begining shortly after birth by parents, siblings
and relatives who speak correct English, are better educated, give the
baby more attention, better health care and more nuetricious food.
These are likely significant factors in producing superior adults in
The UK as well as The USA. Welfare families produce (on the average)
even less capable adults who are poorly prepared for college or
university.   Neil
