Unstable, and mostly used for speculation or illegal activity. Ew.

Worth pointing out that credit scores are completely detached from the government. They are entirely private industry, that is collecting and selling your financial info without your consent or opt in. If you were born before 2004, then they have also accidentally leaked literally all your personal info to the dark web, with literally 0 consequences.

I heard that the us still has good credit because although it owes trillions, it is worth quadrillions (all lands and assets), so not really a concern
