Is Conducting A Credit Check Unfair?

HR - SHRM Question of the Day

FEATURED: Joblessness Discrimination Continues! Why?

Unemployment in the US is higher than in Europe; entrenched levels of high unemployment are among the young. More and more people are in vulnerable or insecure jobs. Yet we continue to conduct "credit checks" in the US as a condition of employment...

Isn't this practice discriminatory, an insurmountable obstacle for the luckless and less privileged?  

Worth some discussion....what's your thoughts?
