There are plenty of us who do care, and I think protecting people's credit scores from catastrophic medical debt is a fantastic idea
That is true, but also with interest rates so high and home prices defying logic does it really even matter?
For everything else that people do with credit scores? Uh yeah. Buying a car, having a credit card, getting any loan, renting an apartment, your credit score is used for a LOT more than just buying a house.
There are lots of jobs that run a credit check too
Yeah credit score is used for a lot more things than a lot of people realize
