China's Social Scorecards

[Hoosier_Vol]

China's chilling dictatorship is moving quickly to introduce social scorecards, in which all citizens will be monitored 24/7 and ranked on their behavior.

The Communist Party’s plan is for every one of its 1.4 billion citizens to be at the whim of a dystopian social credit system, and it’s on track to be fully operational by the year 2020.

An active pilot program has already seen millions of people each assigned a score out of 800 and either reap its benefits or suffer its consequences — depending on which end of the scale they sit.

Under the social credit scheme, points are lost and gained based on readings from a sophisticated network of 200 million surveillance cameras — a figure set to triple in 18 months.

China has a 'chilling' system to control everyone

I wouldn’t be shocked if something like that is introduced here next time we get someone like Obama in office.

It's already happening in America within corporations. People are being penalized due to relatives actions decades ago. While it may not be an official gov body doing. Companies are doing it on their own.

I saw him at a comedy club in Nashville years ago. Hilarious at the beginning, but as the show went on it made me uncomfortable. Every joke was about how fat he was. Left feeling sorry for him, but that chinese buffet bit was hilarious.

Kind of like when he put in the Patriot Act?

Oh, wait.

I’ve always been against it. I firmly believe there were/are people in our government that allowed 9/11 to happen so they could push that stuff through.

Oh, wait.

He did reauthorize it and expand it

I believe in people. Maybe I'm naive but I think all of us except a few dont get worked up over these discussions. I also believe that an in-person event would temper some of the bravado. Lastly, those that cant separate differences in idealogy from our support of UT probably wouldn't be interested in attending.

My point was that this normalized breaching of personal freedom has been going on before 2008.

Honestly, LV and I don't agree on very much in the way of politics, but hell we get along just fine.

Even though he can't hold his liquor worth a damn.
