Kurt:

I *think* the logic behind this is one of 2 things. Either they figure that
if you have bad credit that's a sign of dishonesty, and so you'd be unfit
for employment, or that if you're deep in the hole creditwise there's a
better chance that you'll steal from the company to pay off those debts. I
don't believe either of those views, I think they're totally screwed, but I
believe that's their reason(s).

For this same reason, along with a couple of others I doubt I could get a
security clearance, and most of the jobs I've been applying for require a
security clearance, so that could be one reason I've not heard back from
many of them :(
