Egalitarian society vs modern society

When you talk about egalitarian and modern societies both have a lot in common.  An egalitarian society is all about equality where everyone shares the same rights and opportunities regardless of who you are or where you come from.  Modern society is the society that we live in today. Though we want to see ourselves as an egalitarian society, there those who think we have not reached that point.  Though we have made a lot of advance in various fields, many still believe that we still have a lot to work on before we can truly call ourselves an egalitarian society.
