You don't have to go into debt. Just use credit
cards, & pay'm off quickly.

Owing money is debt. It doesn't matter if you pay it off each month or not. You owed money because someone else paid your bill at the register.

 

[Revoltingest]

I shouldn't have to do this to get a place to live. I shouldn't have to contribute to a banks financial gains as a part of living, and perpetually going into debt, just to have a place to live.

Landlords have the right to pick the applicant who's the best
credit risk. I recommend taking steps to be that best risk.
After all, when renting, a landlord is extending you credit,
& a great deal of it.

If you refuse to use revolving credit (ie, revolving debt),
you shouldn't expect to enjoy the benefits of the good
credit record it provides.
One shouldn't rail against a voluntary system, refuse to
participate in it, & then want the perquisites of the system.
A credit card is a de minimis imposition.

That's not addressing the issue. It's a system that it's forced upon people, and it's a system that greatly benefits banks.
No one should have to participate to get a place to live. No one's credit should be reduced or show bad things because credit isn't being used. And that's the part that forces people into it, because you are penalized for not participating.

Im not expecting those things. And housing should not be attached to it. Im expecting a place to live.
Amd a face mask is minimal. Credit cards make banks rich just because they are forced upon us. Merchants are pressured to accept them, even though they pay to process them. Consumers have annual fees, interest, and another bill to pay, a bill to a bank because of a system that is dropped onto us whether we want it or not. It's a market place rake that whacks people in the face for not participating in it.

I haven't rented a U-Haul trailer in decades.
The ones I have are simply because I'm a U-Haul dealer.

See, I was right

 

[sun rise]

I'm a dealer.

Sometimes I get so tired of news fakery that it spills over.

It took a lot of anger for a good duration of time in India to get things shaken up before Ghandi (and riots that had the English considering withdrawing even before Ghandi volunteered to be a human pinata). It's been decades of anger that has gained LGBT rights.
Anger is sorely an undervalued thing in society.

@ChristineM , I found a kind of cheese I'm less likely to eat than brie. It's casu martzu.

Spoiler: You've been warned

I can hardly wait

Really brie is a very nice, mild and civilised creamy, soft cheese with no mouldy stuff or insects... Often served as the mildest cheese when the cheese board comes around.


Had casu martzu, a friend (or so i thought) brought us a chunk back from holiday. Was actually quite nice, but didn't realise what was in it at the time

 

[Wu Wei]

If it ain't jarlsberg cheese...it ain't cheese...well that is unless it is Swiss Cheese Lacey Swiss Cheese...then it is cheese too....or Irish cheese...that too is cheese...well then there are other cheeses....but if they ain't them...then ain't cheese....except cheddar...that's not cheese...that's boring..... and horrible

 

[Shadow Wolf]

I still say anger is a tool, and a very useful one in the right scenarios.
A great example is anger doesn't even have to resort to any destructive and damaging ends to be resolved. Getting out of Indiana, for me, was largely based in anger. I moved here and my life has been better.

Your original statement was "perpetual" anger......anger can be good...perpetual anger is bad

You're a better? more adventurous? French? crazy? person than I am when it comes to cheese.

It's a good system, ie, evaluating a customer's credit to determine
the risk they pose to the creditor. You don't believe that lack of a
credit history is relevant. I understand that. But creditors disagree.
Face it....with no credit history, you're a greater risk than someone
with a good credit history. And why does it matter? Because you
want credit. It's time to establish some if you want businesses to
extend it to yoiu.

Housing is extending credit. Landlord's have much
at risk if tenants don't pay, damage the place, or
file bogus suits. Such people are costly.

It sounds like you just dislike market economies.
Banks offer me a service. I could turn it down.
But it's worth what it costs.

See, I was right

About what?
