Folks in the US seem to like a good public shaming, could this catch on here?
Inside China's "social credit" system, which blacklists citizens
In the summer of 2016, Xie Wen applied for a loan at the bank and was rejected. Later, he tried to purchase a plane ticket online but was blocked by the system.
“That is when I knew I was blacklisted,” Xie said.
He had been added to the Chinese Supreme Court’s list of “discredited” persons or entities, which usually targets people who refuse to repay debts. In Xie’s case, his advertising company was sued by another firm over a contract dispute and lost. The judge ordered Xie to pay $127,000, which he didn’t. Seven months later, without notice, Xie’s name was added to the blacklist – one that companies are encouraged to check before entering deals
The guy that runs the company super bowl squares game extended me credit for 4 squares but no one else plays for free, even though I work at another branch 100 miles away. Socially at work I am a degenerate gambler who will jump in on any pool or game of chance that my workmates come up with. $5 womens world cup, I'm in. Hell I am even in on the dollar bets at our annual company awards when we bet, white, black or hispanic on who will win each award.Tip to the wise, always tip the guy that runs the company pools.
