Oh no! Not our credit scores?! How will we qualify for a house we can't afford?

Yes, but that's for now. They want everything to be faceless and they want you to have no options but to take the job that comes with housing. It's called a factory town, and they get you by the balls and never let you go. Don't partake in the system built to oppress you. If you can't access something because of a credit score, it's time to leave the party.
