That's because you have an elitist outlook. In reality, it already is like what I described, it's just that it's more subtle than that.

Look at this.

Now look at this.

Finally,look at this.

One special thing about humans is that we are constantly improving.There is no limit to our improvement.We constantly raise the bar.
In a world where everyone was created equal people would loose motivation and get depressed. 
I for one value my ability to program better than all my peers.It is one of the reason's why I've found meaning in my life.If one day everybody were to be just like me i'd be like What the fuck? now everyone can do it.So it isn't special anymore.


In a world where everyone were created equal,inequality would be very prevalent.
I'll tell you why,suppose you want to go to a college,you write the entrance exams,since everyone is created equal most of you will get equal marks.So how does the management decide who to take into the college and who to not take into the college?
There would arise a need for a different variety of categorization.But since everybody is created equal a categorization would be impossible.The only difference between different individuals would be their experience.But since everyone is created equal everyone would understand the same things from same experiences.Since experiences although not identical are similar(you can figure that out for yourself,you can't expect me to explain everything  Rolleyes )people's knowledge derived from experience would also be same.
As you can see.The world wouldn't work.It would break down into chaos.
World wouldn't be "fair".The only form of categorization would be random selection,which is unfair.Imagine you study day and night for your entrance exams and you get very high marks(just like everybody else)but you doesn't get the opportunity to get into the college because the management chooses who to take into the college and who to reject based on random selection?
