checks credit score
-5 fico score, citizen
why would you want to know your credit score? it sounds like you doubt your own creditworthinessEven western sources had to backpedal and say “guys, you’re going overboard with this social credit thing because most citizens aren’t affected by it”
proof that the CIA pales in comparison (heh) to regular mayo brainworms
no, the mayos simply provide almost everything. The CIA just gently prods and guides it sometimes.
Shady business practices were a huge problem in China due to market forces getting set loose on a billion people who were formerly in poverty.
It's gotten better over the years, and I have to imagine that the prospect of government penalties for shady conduct played a big part in it.
My credit score is near maxed and I will still never own a home. Fuck I can't even rent an apartment. My greatest hope is that someday I can take out enough credit cards to buy a van, deck it out like a tiny house and then disappear and never pay the cards off.
Tiny homes only cost about 30k to build, if you're going off grid might as well be cozy.
As someone who is 6'2", I'm really tired about hearing "Tiny Home" as a panacea for skyrocketing housing costs.
Pretty sure it's still considered tiny if you can fit it on a trailer.
I imagine it's a lot more manageable than a tent, and being able to just move your home in a couple decades when the Climate Wars start heating up will be extremely beneficial imo.
Yeah but then I gotta have land. With a van I could disappear when the debt collectors come hunting for me. I lived in a car for quite some time so a van would be a big upgrade.
even if China actually had the social credit score that mayos keep chattering about, it would still be better than the Amerishart one
because if you check your American credit score, it goes down :agony-shivering:
Oh wait thought you meant SSN. still no, but more ambivalent about it
Um, sorry sweety but that's Whataboutism and also the American credit system is good because you don't want THOSE PEOPLE buying houses or using credit cards.
