Episode description

Hi. In today's episode, we look at how credit scoring bureaus were originally created to track debt (among other things) in America, how they've evolved into a bad-faith tactic for the rich to exert control over poor people, and how we need to revamp the entire system so we're not using an arbitrary number to evaluate a person's worth. A human being's worth not being tied to money? Imagine that!
