Credit checks for a job are BS in my opinion, but they are BS for everyone, not just the minorities. If you're going to buy something, credit checks make sense. Again, my opinion.

Try getting, or keeping, a security clearance with bad credit.

why? a company can't make sure that a person will be able to have a vehicle to get to work? that their 800 number isn't gonna be ringing with debt collectors calling in? so they don't have to worry that a person isn't going to have to take time from work to pay bills, or use company resources to pay them online or over the phone? won't have to worry that if they try to call an employee and find their phone is shut off? or that they'll oversleep if their power is turned off?

Credit checks are standardly used for jobs that involve access to cash or financial information. The lady filing suit had a job dealing with financial info.

The reason is that people in financial distress are more likely to be tempted into embezzlement or theft
