If you have bad credit in the US, it prevents you from getting housing, or even renting an apartment.

it also prevents you from getting a job nowadays and more and more employers are insisting on it.

It's kinda weird honestly, capitalists should like when the worker is in debt because then the worker would be more desperate to get a job and agree on worse conditions. not to mention entire system is set up to put workers into debts and thus prevent them from organising and instead forcing them to work more for less.
