When we went to apply for one of those new-fangled credit card things from our bank, which we'd used for years, we couldn't get one. We had "no credit history." LOL! Talk about being punished for doing something right...
The “undocumented” aliens get the credit cards and never pay for them.
They want you to pay interest rates as a tax to pay their bad credit card holders. It’s why “YOU” need credit history, not them.
