China expands its system of tracking a citizen’s behavior with a social credit score, and limiting his freedoms if it goes negative. Your neighbor reports you smoking a cigarette at your house, and when you try to fly to Hong Kong the flight attendant says, your score is too low, get off the plane. Is this just a dystopian nightmare spawned by communism, or could measures taken by American companies to nudge consumer behavior lead to such a scenario in the land of the free?

Barack and Michelle Obama debut their first Higher Ground Production for Netflix, a documentary about the underbelly of the alleged Trump prosperity — American Factory. The new doc looks at a former GM plant, taken over by a Chinese auto glass firm, where workers make less money, and struggle to adapt to the regime of their new masters.
How long can the Communist Chinese government stand against the relentless onslaught of a people who’ve tasted freedom, and want more. Hundreds of thousands daily form the Hong Kong throng, waving the American flag and singing the U.S. national anthem.
