I always assumed credit scores were an integral and historic part of the American financial system.
They were not, they are very recent，most of your parents didn’t have credit scores growing up, and as you can probably tell or at least intuit, it’s mostly just a b******* scheme for those with capital to accrue more capital by invading your privacy.
So we invented social score just before the 90s, and everyone just shrugged and said okay. I guess that’s cool. But we freaked out when china did the same thing a decade or two later, not realizing we’ve had it the whole time.
