RE: 20 Minute Blog a day - do some people just deserve to be homeless
Oh and to answer your question, the credit score system is asinine, rich people can have a perfect credit score by the time they become an adult without any effort or risk, while normal people have to work hard and sacrifice amenities, and poor people are unlikely to ever have more than a decent score no matter how many jobs they work, how much they sacrifice, or how smart they are.
Landlords don't have rights. Nor do renter. Humans have rights.
Can I just copy and paste @erebus answer? It is pretty much what I would have said. I may only add that this system isn't going away, rather it is becoming more and more entrenched in everything that we need to survive, if nothing is done to stop this rampant capitalism we will soon need credit reports for our weekly shopping! what schools our kids can go to, the wealthy will do everything to keep the poor down, after all they are beneath them, don't you know.
I totally I agree @erebus - as I wrote this I was trying to rationalize the "upperclasses" mind frame - those landlords (ahem, lords over the land) who feel the credit syste is necessary in order to choose
serfsapplicants to rent their units. Maybe get those who haven't thought much of the credit system to start thinking (as I said down in your other commetn @erebus - I didn't see this other portion until right now lol)@moonunit it is actually pretty crazy to think where this perpetual system is taking us. cough China's social crediting system cough soon they will be charging for the air we breathe and the square footage our bodies take up on their planet... SMH.. it seems action against it is almost futile. It's quite frustrating.
