On this day of the Democrats being surrender monkeys, this comment to one of my posts shows how neoliberals just don’t get it and why we’re in this mess.This dude is supposed to be one of our allies, but efficient pricing and protecting landlords is more important to him than preventing homelessness

This NYT piece interviewing 12 Trump voting men has some of what you’d expect - misogyny, xenophobia, and more. But a small bright spot was this. Even Trump voters want to keep the CFPB! www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

About 5% to 25% of the time. That’s how often disputed info was removed. Equifax made no changes 53-57% of the time, Experian made no changes around 48%, and TransUnion made no changes 47-51%. The rest of the time, they changed some info, but not in response to the dispute. 8/9

But it was probably less because TU has waay fewer staff. Equifax had 1040 to 1300 staff handling disputes in 2019-2021. Experian had 550 to 730 staff. TransUnion had as little as … 171. Even though all 3 credit bureaus handled roughly the same # of items disputed 5/9

7 to 13 minutes. That’s the average amount that
Equifax and Experian spent on each dispute. And since consumer disputed more than one item, it was even less time per item. What about TransUnion? Well, we don’t know since they didn’t provide the information. 4/9
