You snark, but legally preventing banks from offering better rates to favored clients would probably be a good thing for society and the banks themselves. After all, plenty of charming and well liked clients have turned out to be terrible credit risks.

- jen20 5y agoThe concept is fine. The implementation is garbage (in the US), and insufficiently transparent.
