    Assuming you are correct it’s still pretty crazy that they even considered anything even close to that.

      China is having some of the same wages/productivity split problems that the us has and there’s a vein of thought that says it’s fixable with social incentive programs.

      This isn’t 1984 evil authoritarian tankie shit, its liberal reform shit.

      And as another reply to you mentioned, a lot of the “social” factors are reported to the big 3 credit reporting agencies through denials based on giant weird datasets anyway, so the “normal” credit score is a “social” credit score in disguise.
