Brah, some employers in the US check your credit score to make sure you are trustworthy enough.

Your credit score can be checked in multiple other situations that have nothing to do with you taking on debt, but still somehow your debt factors into the decision.

If you think there is no social control as part of this system, then you are just blind to the system you grew up in

Sure. They’re evaluating your creditworthiness. What they’re not measuring is your political coherence or social “goodness.”

The closest thing we have to a social score is a criminal record.
