New York entrepreneur and Democratic 2020 candidate Andrew Yang wants to implement a system in which a government-run mobile app rewards Americans with digital social credits (DSCs) for good behavior.
Americans would receive DSCs under Yangs system for things such as participating in a town fair, fixing a neighbors appliance or tutoring a student, his presidential campaign website explains.
As individuals rack up DSCs, they would have both a permanent balance theyve earned over their lifetime and a current balance. They could cash the points in for experiences, purchases with participating vendors, support for causes, and transfer points to others for special occasions, Yang states on his website. As their permanent balance gets higher, they might qualify for various perks like throwing a pitch at a local ballgame, an audience with their local Congressperson or meeting their states most civic-minded athlete or celebrity.
The most socially detached would be the most likely to ignore all of this, he added. But many people love rewards and feeling valued.
Yangs social credit plan bears some similarities to the social credit system implemented by Chinas authoritarian government.
Every citizen in China is assigned a social credit score that determines whether they can buy plane or train tickets.
Unlike the Chinese system, Yangs plan does not include using digital social credit for punitive measures.

"tonight you get fresh veggies. No credits needed."
Play along, and you get fresh vegetables at dinner; disobey, and your face has a date with a hot iron.
Not gonna get this just right, so all you perfectionists out there, grab a hold of your chair arms, and hang on.
Except for the Mark of the Beast on your forehead or hand, you will not be able to buy or sell.
Who promotes this possibility?
The Leftists.
Folks, if you have an ounce of Christian in you, you need to stop supporting anyone with a (D) behind their name. They may look all soft and fuzzy to you locally, but they are part of the numbers that it will take to shut decent folks all the way down.
Just get a hold of yourself and stop it. Stop it now!!!
Don’t vote for a Person(D), as if your life depended on it.
It does.
Your wife/husband, children, grandchildren, parents, grandparents, siblings, extended family members on your friends and associate’s lives depend on this also.
The over-whelming majority of democrat voters have no idea what they’re voting for or who they’re electing. They equate D with Free and turn in their ballot.
Donate to some exotic dancer's "college fund" - get a social credit.
...and those people would receive priority service from hospitals, clinics, ambulances, police, fire departments and be more likely to get a government or union job.
Consequences of “taking the red pill”: A non-stop horror film reality unfolding before your eyes and the idiots racing to their doom can’t hear you screaming DON’T OPEN THE DOOR!!!
Yes, and there's no "app" there, so the first time many of its citizens find out that they're not going anywhere is at the ticket counter. Add prohibitive fuel taxation and internal passports to that and you have a completely captive population. It's all for their own good living under the scrutiny of a benevolent State, of course.
Anyone who buys into Yang's assertion that it's all carrot, no stick, isn't looking at the ball bat he has behind his back. Redefine continuing to breathe as a positive social reward and you have the end state of this thing, and the Left is very accustomed to redefining words.
>>>They equate D with Free and turn in their ballot.<<<
I think most of us equate the D with Dummies.
No.
oh sure. Let’s turn America into China, that’s the ticket. No, how about we leave America to be America?
Why does the Democrat party not vet their candidates before allowing them on the ticket? They let just anybody run under their banner: system gamers, fast-talkers, exploiters, scammers, atheists, weirdos, anchor babies, first gen’ers and dual passporters who trash America, race-baiters, freaks and outright fringe dredges of humanity colored in an east coast university flag.
The scoring will be adjusted to minimize anything related to church, private schools, or mainstream conservative causes. Scores by race and gender will also have to be equalized. Attendance at leftist protests will count extra.
Democrat censorship.
so he’s an ageist, too? why stop the $1000 extra at 65? The elderly, not the youth, are the poorest segment. Surely the elderly who exist on $1000 or so a month SS can’t afford the rents and grocery prices set by the prevailing wage. Financial social engineering is engineering the elderly into institutional care. Stalin would be proud.
That’s my post. :-)
Looks like the day of the independent man and woman are numbered.
Borders without walls,
gulags without walls.
Sorta has a ring to it, don't it?
(That ring is the sound of hammers on anvils forging shackles...)
It wanted linking.
Watch Nanny Bloomberg take this up in his 2020 quest with the ultimate goal forced disarming of the population.
Get a rope.
