If personal finances were taught in school, and if banks weren't peddling their wares to college kids during every fall and spring registration, I would almost agree with you. But since one has to trip over the chase bank, wellsfargo, and citibank tables to get from financial aid to adivsing it is quite obviously a racket and a mutually beneficial arrangement between colleges and debt peddlers. credit checks for employees is just wrong. why is it wrong? my employer is never going to loan me any money for a car or a house or am i ever going to be in their financial debt. so my credit history, just like my medical records are none of their business.
credit card = debt with a pretty plastic card
loan = debt
mortgage = debt
car loan = debt
Debt has only become en-vogue since the 1930's. Before that having a mortgage on your home was something the neighbors frowned on you for having and talked about behind your back.
for your line of reasoning why not start allowing medical insurance companies to parse my dna to figure out what they will and won't cover me for? insurance = betting. insurance company = the house. why should i show them my cards too?
