It amazes me that the western propaganda keeps talking about a Chinese social credit system that is an extension of existing social rankings and ratings in China which have existed for millennia, but no one blinks an eye to this American credit system that is horrendous. The Chinese system is mainly in place for business, not so much the individual, like in the US.
The US credit system is a way to make the poor, poorer with insane interest rates that are illegal in other parts of the world. The matrix for the credit system is unclear as it is managed by private companies. The whole thing is insane, but no let's point at evil China where the system has no impact on normal people, unlike in the US.
I think you're overstating it by pretending that no one is paying attention to credit score. Especially when you say this under a post that literally points it out, it rings untrue
